The same faith should be meted on him.
One Chibueze Njoku of Umuekwunne community in Imo has been arrested
for setting ablaze his pregnant
sister-in-law, Mrs Uloma Njoku, for
allegedly maltreating his dog. The suspect was said to have set his
victim on fire for pouring a cup of water on the dog. According to an
eyewitness, the mother of three had served her
children lunch and was washing at the back of the house when the dog
drank from the children’s cup.
The eyewitness said the victim threw the remaining water on the dog
when her children told her that their uncle’s dog had drunk from their
water.Njoku came out from his room and demanded to know why the late Uloma
drenched his dog and was not pacified by the victm’s explanation.
While the victim continued her washing, her brother-in-law spread fuel
on her and set her ablaze. The witness said neighbours took her to a
nearby health centre where she died from the burns.
The neighbours, who handed the suspect over to the police, described
him as a terror to the community. The Public Relations Officer of the
Imo Police Command, Mr Vitalis Onugu, confirmed the incident. Onugu said
the suspect was being investigated by the State Criminal Investigations Department for prosecution.
