Ibom Village in Arochukwu, Abia State was the scene of a gruesome crime as a 32-year-old man raped a 72-year-old woman to death. Cecilia Ogidi-Okereke, a septuagenarian mother of four was raped to death on Sunday by a 32-year-old man nicknamed “Ochu”.
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.
When contacted, the Abia police spokesman, Geoffrey Ogbonna, said he was yet to be informed about the incident.
