A 72-year-old Nigerian woman has been raped
to death by a 32 year old man who bears the
nickname Ochu. The incident happened on Sunday in Ibom
Village in Arochukwu, Abia state, eastern
Nigeria. According to the News Agency of Nigeria, the
deceased went to fetch fodder for her goats
around 5 p.m. in a nearby bush when she was
trailed by Ochu to where he raped her to death. The source said the man, a notorious Indian
hemp smoker, was known for trailing and
raping women in the area. It said that before Ochu left the deceased to
run away, he pulled her corpse to a nearby
footpath for people to see it. The source said the assailant was arrested on
Monday in Ohafia when he was identified by a
woman who was privy to the information about
the crime. The woman, who was in a bus en route to a
nearby village, alerted military men at a check
point on the road. The source said the military men arrested him
and later handed him over to the police in that
area before he was moved to Arochukwu.
