Read Time:2 Minute, 24 Second
In Oko community, Orumba North Local Government Area, Anambra State, two brothers were detained by the Anambra State Police Command for allegedly killing and burying their brother in a shallow grave within their compound.
This was revealed by Nnaghe Itam, the state commissioner for police, at a press conference held Monday at the command’s Awka headquarters.
According to Itam, the deceased, Chibuzor Okeke, was suspected of stealing and burglary. His brother, Chidiebere Okeke, and cousin, Emebo Ogochukwu, apprehended him and severely beat him until he passed away.
He said, “We have suspects who murdered their brother and buried him in a shallow grave in a compound at Oko. The deceased, Chibuzor Okeke, was accused of burglary and stealing.
“His brother, Chidiebere Okeke and his cousin, Emebo Ogochukwu, caught him and beat him to a stupor. As a result, Chibuzor became unconscious and was rushed to the hospital where the doctor confirmed him dead.
“The two suspects, in order to cover up for the incident, dug a shallow grave in their compound and buried Chibuzor.”
Meanwhile, Itam also disclosed that the command rescued four children allegedly stolen from their parents in Bauchi State and sold to another person in Anambra State.
“The operatives also arrested four suspects including an illegal foster mother. The suspects confessed to the crime and narrated the role that each of them played. One of the children has been identified and efforts are already emplaced to unite the child with his parents.
“The command wishes to use this opportunity to request that you assist in sharing the pictures of these innocent children for possible identification and unification with their parents,” he added.
According to Itam, a coordinated security operation conducted by the Nigeria Police Force and involving members of the military, civil defense, and Anambra Vigilante units effectively destroyed a criminal camp in Nimo, Njikoka Local Government Area, on December 24, 2024.
He said that the operation caused serious injuries to escaping suspects, destroyed a number of improvised buildings inside the camp, and recovered 19 unexploded improvised explosive devices.
He went on to say that the prompt response was prompted by reliable information about the local criminal gang’s operations as well as information gleaned from questioning suspects detained in ongoing state-wide police operations.
According to the CP, on Saturday, December 7, 2024, police officers from the Anti-Cultism Squad Enugu Ukwu, Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State, raided a designated black site in Umunaga Village, Awka South LGA, based on reliable intelligence.
“During the operation, one Okechukwu Chinwuko (M) aged 27 years of Umunaga Village and Ezenwa Chinedu (M) 22 years of Umuneri Village were arrested. Other incriminating objects recovered include one pump action gun, four live cartridges, a cutlass, criminal charms, and substances suspected to be hard drugs.
“The operatives also rescued two female victims who the suspects have forcibly abused sexually,” he added.
