The Benue State police command has arrested three persons over the murder of a young lady in a hotel in Benue state.
The Police Public Relations Officer PPRO, SP Catherine Anene, disclosed this while confirming the incident in Makurdi.
IDOMA VOICE reports that the young lady was reportedly found dead, last weekend, at a hotel around the Nyiman area of Makurdi, the Benue State capital.
Sources who refused to be named said the lady, of about 20 years, had lodged into the hotel with a man, yet to be identified, but was later found dead in the room.
Confirming the report, the Police PPRO, Anene did not confirm the rumour that her private part was removed.
“There is a death report of a lady in a hotel but details will come from the doctors, though we didn’t see marks of violence on the body. So, the autopsy will reveal the cause of the death.
Anene said “The person that died was dressed but we didn’t see marks on her body meaning there are no injuries. Three suspects were arrested in connection with this case so they will give us details. We can’t say it is a case of murder because we didn’t see marks of violence.”
