° He died after sex
The Ogun State Police command has arrested a 48 years-old- butcher, Segun Taiwo, for allegedly killing his mistress and dumpling her body along the road.
It was gathered that the 50- years- old, Abimbola Olusola, the body was found by the roadside at the Aro area of Abeokuta.
The suspect was arrested following information received at Lafenwa Divisional Headquarters, that the dead body of the woman was seen lying on the roadside at Aro area of Abeokuta.
According to Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi:” Upon the information, DPO lafenwa, despatched his men to the scene, where the body was recovered and deposited at the mortuary.
“The case was subsequently transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID) on the order of Commissioner of Police Mr. Lanre Bankole for discreet investigation.
“CSP Femi Olabode led the homicide section to the scene and embarked on a technical and intelligence-based investigation to unravel the mystery behind the death of the woman . The investigation eventually led them to Obada Oko area, where the suspect is living and was arrested. On interrogation, the suspect first denied knowing the deceased, but when evidence linking him with the deceased which has been at the disposal of the policemen before his arrest was tabled before him, he was left with no other alternative than to confess.
“In his confession, he told the investigators that he had been dating the deceased since last year and that he invited her to his house on Sunday, October 31, to pass the night with him, since his wife was not at home. It was around 3:am that the deceased started showing signs of sickness after they have sex together, and before he could do anything, she has given up the ghost.
“He stated further that he took the corpse in his car and drove it to Aro area where he dumped it.
When asked why he behaved in such an inhuman manner, he said he did so out of fear”.
Meanwhile, CP Bankole who commended his men for the professional manner in which they carried out the investigation has directed that the suspect be charged to court as soon as the investigation is concluded.
He, therefore, appealed to members of the public to always make their whereabouts known to at least one person whenever they have cause to go out of their houses.
