Armpit Hair and pubic hair Shaved as Man Kills lover for rituals

Police in Ojongbodu division in the Oyo-West Local Government Area of Oyo State has commenced investigation into the circumstances surrounding the mysterious death of a woman at a guest house in Oyo town.
The incident happened barely 72 hours after a human abattoir was discovered in a  forest at Soka area of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.

It was learnt that the deceased was said to have been invited by her boy friend to a popular guest house at about 7pm where both of them booked for a room.

But to the surprise of workers, at the guest house, which is located at Jaremily area along Ilora road, neither the man nor his concubine could be found inside the room after the expiration of their booked time.

After a search, the lifeless body of the woman was said to have been found inside the bathroom with water showering on her head.



The matter was reported to the police, who immediately arrested the owner of the guest house .
During investigation, the residence of the lover man, who was said to  have bolted away immediately after the incident happened was contacted at Winners area of the town where his matrimonial wife was said to have told the police detectives that her  husband travelled  out of the town and would spend few days before returning.

Suspicious of the statement, the police were said to have arrested both the wife and children and taken them to the station pending the appearance of the husband.

The accused, whose name could not be ascertained as at press time was said to have appeared at the police station and was arrested and detained.

He was said to have ran away to one of his relations, a military personnel, based  in Ibadan, who advised him to go  and report  himself to the police.
It was further gathered that examination conducted on the corpse showed that the  hair of her armpit and pubic hair  had been shaved.

Though the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) was not available for comment, a reliable police officer  hinted that the matter will soon be referred to the Homicide section at Iyaganku in Ibadan, the state capital for further investigations.
