Two suspects have been arrested by the Delta State Police Command in connection with the murder of a 10-year-old girl with a machete.
This was disclosed in a statement released on Monday by the Delta State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Bright Edafe, via his account on X (formerly Twitter).
Accompanying a video of the suspects’ interrogation, Edafe wrote: “The boyfriend of the girl deceived one of the triplets, who is a sister to his girlfriend, and took her to meet two unknown men, where they used a machete to kill the little girl, who is 10 years old. They promised to give him ₦200,000, but even the ₦200,000, he didn’t see.”
One of the suspects, a 20-year-old identified as Precious, admitted during the interrogation, saying in part: “I sent a guy to call her (one of the 10-year-old triplets). I then handed her over to the two boys, and they killed her with a cutlass.”
