wonder shall never end.The police have arrested a man, Usman Inuwa, with the corpse of a three-year -old child in a suitcase.
The suspect resident
in Bwari, a satellite town in Abuja, was said to have been arrested by
security personnel after a tip-off at Maitama area of the city.
He was said to have been accosted by security operatives who demanded that he should open the suitcase.
The suspect,
who
initially tried to bluff his way out of the situation, had his suitcase
forcibly opened and the corpse of the young child packed in a foetal
position was found in it.
Our correspondent
gathered that investigators interrogating him were working on the theory
that he might have been recruited by someone to bring the corpse for
ritual purposes. It is believed that Inuwa might have kidnapped and
killed his victim.
The police said that
they were working to unravel the identity of the child with a view to
tracing his parents and getting other information that would lead to the
arrest of other suspects.
The FCT Police Public
Relations Officer, Doris England, who confirmed Inuwa’s arrest, added
that the suspect had yet to mention the names of his accomplices.
“The suspect was
arrested at Maitama on Saturday and is presently in custody undergoing
interrogation; he has yet to name his accomplices and other issues
surrounding the dead child,” England said.
