Officials of the Katsina State Police Command have arrested one Ms Muibat Taiwo Abdulsalam, an official of the Federal Competitive Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC), Katsina branch over alleged murder of her boss.

It was learnt that the suspect allegedly killed one Julius Haruna, the Northwest Zonal Coordinator of the commission in his office after accusing him of sexual harassment.

Confirming the incident, the police spokesman in Katsina, SP Gambo Isah, said the suspect had reportedly done a certain report for which she demanded N80, 000.

The deceased directed the cashier to give N4, 000 to Abdulsalam, arguing that what she did was not up to the amount she demanded.

Gambo said, according to the police investigation, an argument ensued between the suspect and the deceased in his office in the presence of the cashier who later left the two in fierce argument.

He added that the victim allegedly manhandled the deceased, tore his clothes and took his nude picture. She reportedly rushed to the GRA police station, where she reported him for alleged sexual harassment.

“Our investigations also revealed that the suspect, Ms Muibat, had fought four previous directors who were there before the deceased,” Isah said, adding that investigation into the matter was ongoing.

After her report at the police station, some police officers were said to have followed her to the director’s office only to meet him lifeless on the floor, with bruises on his body. (Courtesy, excluding headline, Daily Trust)
