Revenge: 14-year-old jilted wife dumps ex-husband’s brother inside well

       

A 14-year-old jilted housewife, Nafida, has been arrested in Kano for the murder of the younger brother of her ex-husband, whom she allegedly threw inside a deep well.

Sources close to the police revealed that the case of culpable homicide taken over by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the police, occurred last week in Dawanau, in Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area of the state.

It was leant that the accused abducted the unsuspecting 10-year-old boy from Dawanau and took him to Dambatta from where she committed the dastardly act.

It was gathered that having accomplished her revenge mission, she used the phone of a friend to put a call to her former mother in- law, intimating her that she would never get back her son.

Nafida, said a source, had since confessed that she killed the boy as a pay back to her ex mother- in- law for encouraging her son to divorce her.

Police Public Relations Officer, A. S. P Magaji Majiya, told Daily Sun that upon the receipt of the case, the police immediately commenced investigation and traced the owner of the phone, who in turn led the police to the accused person:

“When the police from Dawaki Tofa Division, who were investigating the crime arrived Dambatta, they discovered that the members of the Dambatta community had previously briefed the ward head of the discovery of a strange corpse, who himself had reported the matter to the police station there.

“The police had taken the corpse to the morgue by this time and when the family was called upon to identify the corpse in the hospital, they found the mystery corpse to be that of the missing 10-year-old boy.”

Majiya confirmed that police investigation was ongoing, adding that the case would soon be charged to court by the police.
