A
Facebook user identified as Perekebena Okoyen, has taken to the social
networking platform to share the photos of a man who reportedly stabbed a
girl to death inside a hotel in Bayelsa state.
The suspect and the victim
The man took to his heels when the cry of the victim attracted the
attention of other guests in the hotel who came to her rescue on Friday
night, though the young girl who was rushed to a private clinic where
she was treated, developed complications on Saturday and died on Sunday
morning.
In a latest development over the gruesome murder, youths from
Biogbolo Epie, Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital, went berserk on Monday
following the murder of a young girl in De New Wapo Hotel located in
their area.
It was gathered that tension caused by the activities of the group
of aggrieved indigenes forced traders to close their business premises
on the affected street and other adjoining streets of Ebis and Green
Villa.
The angry protesters, who were reportedly carrying weapons, chased
suspected non-indigenes and vowed to avenge the killing of their
kinswoman. It was gathered that the suspect identified as a former
tenant to the victim’s father, lured the girl into his hotel room on
Friday.
There were, however, different versions of what transpired in the
hotel room where the suspect inflicted injuries on the victim. One of
the narrative said on getting to the room, the deceased girl resisted
all the attempts by the fleeing man to have s*x with her.
The teenage victim stabbed to death
Provoked by the girl’s behaviour, the suspect reportedly went violent, stabbed the victim three times on her chest and fled.
According to another version, the suspect drugged his victim and
cut off her breasts in a desperate attempt to use her for ritual. It
was, however, learnt that a police van took the victim to the Federal
Medical Centre (FMC), where she later died.
