Enugu State CP, Mohammed Ndatsu Aliyu
By LAWRENCE NJOKU, Enugu
The Enugu State Police Command has arrested two persons in connection with the death of a young lady in Enugu.
20-year-old Orji Chiamaka Precious Gold was found dead inside a gutter along the presidential road, Independence Layout, Enugu on Monday morning.
She was half-naked, an indication that she was killed by someone and dumped there.
The Police evacuated her body to the hospital, following information received in the early hours to New Haven Police Division where it was confirmed dead and deposited the corpse in the mortuary for autopsy.
Enugu State Police Public Relations Officer, Daniel Ndukwe while confirming the development, said that the Commissioner of Police in the state, Mohammed Ndatsu Aliyu has ordered a full-scale investigation to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death.
“To this end, the Commissioner has called on young persons in the State to be wary of who they go out with to avoid becoming victims of such despicable acts.
He further enjoins the general public, particularly residents of the State, to assist the Police with useful information that will lead to the arrest and prosecution of the assailants”, he said.
He said that the two persons arrested are being investigated to ascertain their culpability or otherwise in the death of the young lady. (The Guardian)
