A 35-year-old woman, Miss Ngozi Eze was r*p*d by four men, killed and her body parts chopped off for rituals at Enugu-Ezike, Igbo-Eze North Local Government Area of Enugu State.
The suspected ritualists responsible for this horrible crime have been arrested by the Umuagama Community Neighborhood Watch in Enugu Ezike.
The Chairman of the Neighborhood Watch, Mr. Onyema Ossai while speaking on the incident explained how the suspects were caught after the decomposed body of the deceased was found said: “Ndukwe Omeke, the leader of the gang during his confession named Chinedu Ugwuanyi, (palm wine tapper), Eugene Ukwueze and Ibekwe Eya, (Okada rider), and identified Kenneth Idoko, a butcher as the their anchor man, who offered them the job of delivering to him female private parts for N600, 000″.
The Chairman further disclosed that the culprits were being backed up by top shots saying, “What we found out from the suspects after interrogation was that they have a list of high profile indigenes and politicians who is backing them up in this ritual killings”.
The suspects were said to have confessed that they put the private parts of the woman inside a white handkerchief given to them by one Kenneth Idoko, a butcher( who is their anchor man) who had instructed they bring it to him before collecting the sum of N600, 000, according to a source.
The suspects are however yet to be paid the sum of money promised by Idoko for delivering her body parts, rather he gave them N500 for the fueling of their motorcycles with the promise of paying them once his principal makes it available.
Meanwhile the Parish Priest of St. Mary’s Catholic Church Umuagama, Enugu Ezike, Rev. Fr. Mellitus Idogwu has condemned the horrific act and urge the suspects should face the law saying “as no sinner should go unpunished”.
“I commend the neighborhood watch for their effort in apprehending all the suspects involved in this heinous act”, he added.
