The Enugu State Police Command has launched a probe into a suspected money ritual case that led to the murder of a rice farmer, Mr Ngozi Ogbuewu, in Nenwe, in the Aninri Local Government Area of the state, which led to the slaying of the alleged murderer, Ifeanyi Ubah.

It was alleged that the said Ogbuweu was on his way back from his farm when he was accosted by Ifeanyi Ubah, a native of Nkanu East area of the state who reportedly butchered him and cut of his neck, according to a report in Punch.

A resident, who gave his name as Dj-stuky Guy, said the farmer’s wife fled the scene.

He said, “The man went to his rice farm with his wife to apply fertiliser and other pesticides and while he was returning home with his wife on their motorcycle, the suspect struck and pushed them down. The wife was lucky and ran away, while the husband was cut with a machete and killed.

“After cutting off the man’s head, he hid it in a fertiliser bag and took it home with the victim’s motorcycle.

“Unfortunately for him, he was caught in his community when the head fell off from the motorcycle he was riding and he was apprehended by members of his community.

“During interrogation, the suspect told his community that he killed the man because they had a misunderstanding.”

Guy further disclosed that in the course of the interrogation a delegation from Nenwe arrived and demanded that Ifeanyi Ubah be handed over.

According to the Punch, Ifeanyi Ubah was promptly handed over by his community to avoid a war between the two communities.

One source said that he was immediately killed and his corpse burnt.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Daniel Ndukwe, confirmed the incident to the Punch said:

“A case of murder/jungle justice reported at the Nenwe Police Division is being investigated, please.”
