A Benue man identified as Benjamin Terungwa Agura has been arrested for allegedly killing one Ruth, a wife to one Torngu Mbachilin in the bid to rape her.
IDOMA VOICE gathered that Benjamin allegedly strangled his victim who resisted his attempt to rape her.
After killing her, the suspect dumped her body in a well and filled it with garbage near Uchi Mbakor in Tarka LGA Benue State.

“Terungwa is still in police custody in Makurdi as at time of this report.”
