<<
Shop owners and patrons were said to have>>>>scampered to safety when the killers stormed the area and fired shots at their targeted victim. The road was said to have been deserted after the murder as people hurriedly closed their shops to avoid being arrested by the police during a raid.
The deceased was said to have….been evacuated by a police team that arrived minutes after the incident.
Source in the area who spoke anonymously to newsmen said: “From what we later learnt, the young man was said to have ran away from Aba with…,some people’s money after a transaction that they did with him and returned back some weeks back.
“We learnt that the young man has been trailed by the gang….for three days. They trailed him on Monday and Tuesday, but he was able to escape.
“On Wednesday, it was gathered that he received a call from someone who he told where he was. It was learnt that shortly after receiving the call, the gang stormed at the joint…..where they shot him three times and used a machete that they equally came with to cut his head and ensured that he died before they left.”
,,,,,Efforts to get the reaction of the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Abia State Command, SP Geoffrey Ogbonna, was unsuccessful, as he neither….responded to calls nor a message placed on his handset as at the time of filing this report.
,,,,However, a top police officer at the Aba Area Command…confirmed the incident, adding that the corpse had been deposited at an undisclosed mortuary in the city.
