A landlord, Paul Oparaugo and his family have stabbed one his tenants, Udochukwu Iwhuoha to death in Owerri, Imo State
The victim, who was said to be the only male child of his parents, was stabbed severally by the furious Landlord and members of his family until he gave up the ghost. They fled immediately after committing the dastardly act to escape the wrath of the mob that had gathered.
According to eyewitnesses, the victim who lived on the ground floor of the building returned from work on Wednesday evening and met a dead fowl at his doorstep. He then went to make inquiries from his landlord who operates a poultry farm close to the victim’s window.
But the source continued that “the Landlord came out with a machete and cut the boy on the shoulder before his wife and children rushed out and started stabbing the boy with kitchen knives. It was his shout that attracted neighbors but before they could come to rescue the boy he had lost a lot of blood and he died on the way to hospital “.
Confirming the incident, the State Commissioner of Police, Mr Chris Ezike, said the suspect and his family are on the run. He however assured that they will soon be arrested and prosecuted.
