The Katsina State Police Command has arrested a 15-year-old
housewife, Dausiya Abdulmuminu for allegedly poisoning her husband,
Samilu Usman, 27, and half-brother, Mohammed Abdulmuminu, leading to
their death.
Confirming the story, Spokesperson for the command, DSP Gambo Isah,
said on Friday that the lady had been detained at the Bakori Police
Division.
Abdulmuminu allegedly committed the offence on December 18 at the
Dan Mayaki village in Bakori Local Government Area of the state.
According to a Punch, she was said to have put the poison in a meal
eaten by her late husband, his younger sister, Shafaatu, and her
half-brother.
Shortly after the meal, the three complained of severe stomachache,
leading to the death of Usman and Mohammed at a government hospital
they were rushed to.
Isah said, “The lady’s husband and her half-brother were
brought to the hospital dead. Shafaatu survived and was discharged after
treatment. Our investigation is still ongoing in respect to the
incident.”
Meanwhile, sources at the Dan Mayaki village said Dausiya allegedly
took the decision to kill her husband after she was impregnated by
another man and tried to prevent her husband from knowing about it.
