A newly built house belonging to a suspected internet fraudster, Ifeanyi Osuji, has been set ablze by angry youths over alleged defilement and mysterious death of a 14-year-old girl, Amarachi Iwunze, in Umuduruewuewuru, Umuezeala Nsu in Ehime Mbano Local Government Area of Imo state.
It was gathered that the 22-year-old suspect, who is currently now on the run, allegedly rap*d the teenager to death in his house.
According to sources in the community, the teenager’s lifeless body stained with sperm, was found in the suspect’s room on Sunday, June 12.
A source in the community told PUNCH that the suspect escaped after his mother raised an alarm which attracted residents and indigenes to the scene.
Following the death of the teenager, rampaging youths stormed the house of the suspect on Monday morning, June 13, and burnt it down.
Deputy PG of the community, Mr Okechukwu Oguowere claimed the teenager was murdered for ritual purposes.
Mr Oguowere further disclosed that the deceased's cousin, Uche Iwunze, who took her to the suspect's house has been apprehended and handed over to the police for interrogation.
He explained that Uche Iwunze is an apprentice to the fleeing suspect, adding that they both conspired to use the girl for money ritual.
The Publicity Secretary of Umuezeala Nsu Youth Organisation, Nathan Onyenehido, who confirmed the incident, said the suspect's mother discovered the victim’s corpse in her son's room on Sunday.
