He said the alleged wife, who was with her friend Ogochukwu Nwankwo returned four hours later with a cane and opened the bathroom door.
The PPRO said the suspects demanded N60, 000 from the victim or have her humiliation video pushed to the internet.
He said the suspect’s friend, Nwankwo stripped her naked and flogged her severally while the principal suspect was busy video-taping her and thereafter pushed her out from the compound n*ked.
The police spokesperson said the complainant alleged that the principal suspect, Tochukwu, called her on phone the following day and demanded for N60,000 or they would post her nude video on the internet.
