In a chilling and shocking incident, the police have apprehended a 40-year-old man, Adetomiwa Adeyinka, in the Ahmadiyya Ijaiye area of Ojokoro, Lagos. He is facing serious accusations of strangling a woman who had visited his residence and committing a gruesome act by engaging in illicit activities with her lifeless body.
The incident unfolded on September 12 when Adeyinka initially reported to the police that his girlfriend, 36-year-old Chinonso Okomadu, had come from Ikotun, fallen seriously ill, and was promptly rushed to a private hospital. Tragically, a doctor at the hospital declared her deceased.
However, as the investigation progressed, Adeyinka shockingly confessed to the horrifying act of strangulation and the disturbing act involving the victim's lifeless body.
Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, confirmed the deeply disturbing incident. He stated that the case has been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID), and the suspect will face legal charges following a comprehensive investigation.
Hundeyin underscored the seriousness with which this heinous crime will be handled, sending a clear message that criminals will face the full weight of justice in the state.
