Love gone Wrong:: Man Murders Austria-Based Lover In Edo State, Nigeria.( Graphic Contents)
The
Edo State Police Command of the Nigeria Police Force has declared a manhunt for
a suspected witness of a dastardly murder that was likely committed in the
early hours of Christmas Day.
The
manhunt followed the arrest by the Ikpoba Hill Police Division of the suspected
murderer, Mr. Festus Aimufua, for the wicked murder of one Ms. Rose Aifuwa, a
middle-aged Benin woman based in Austria, who had come home in a healthy, hale
and hearty condition to celebrate the Christmas and New Year festivities with
her family and friends.
Mr.
Aimufua, who was said to be a lover of Ms. Aifuwa before she travelled to
Austria, murdered the deceased and thereafter dumped her corpse on the road along Upper Mission
Street extension around Oando Filling Station in Benin City in the early hours
of Christmas Day.
The
gory sight of the woman’s physically assaulted and mangled body on the tarred
road of the highly populated market street soon attracted a large crowd of
onlookers some of whom would in no time identify her corpse and family,
resulting to the invitation of the police and eventually, investigation into
her sudden death.
In
spite of the scanty information surrounding the death, the state police command
soon began to unravel the mystery surrounding the woman’s death with the arrest
of the lover in connection to the murder.
Mr.
Aimufua, the alleged murderer and lover popularly known as “Two Million,” might
have killed the deceased after she insisted on collecting a certain amount of
money running into millions of naira, which he allegedly owed her.
Sources
said the debt accrued from the unpaid spare parts the woman supplied the lover
boy who owns a spare parts shop in Benin City.
As at
the time of filing this report, the police had already began its search for an
alleged accomplice of the murder, who witnessed and possibly assisted the prime
suspect to carry out the heinous act.
Saturday
Mirror further gathered that the case would be transferred to the State Crime
Investigation Department (SCID) for a detailed investigation of the murder.
While
police investigations continue, family members and residents of the community
have been calling for justice for the family of the dead since Christmas Day.
