The Bauchi State Police Command has apprehended a 40-year-old man, Ibrahim Umar, in connection with the gruesome murder of two casual workers, Kabiru Idi and Bato Ali, in Gamawa Local Government Area of the state. The suspect allegedly committed the heinous act for money ritual purposes.
The arrest came after one Adamu Mohammed from Taranka village reported the disappearance of the victims, prompting the police to launch an investigation. Detectives quickly moved to the scene and arrested Ibrahim Umar.
During interrogation, Umar reportedly confessed to killing the two casual workers and burying their bodies in a shallow grave on the outskirts of the town. To add to the chilling details, a rubber gallon containing liquid substances suspected to be human blood was discovered at the suspect’s residence.
