The Delta State Police Command has arrested
two suspects in connection with the murd£r of a
10-year-old girl, who is the sister of one of the
suspects



This was disclosed in a statement released on
Monday, Jan. 20, by the Delta State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Bright Edafe, via his
account on X (formerly Twitter).


Edafe shared a video of the suspects being
interrogated and he wrote: "The boyfriend of the
girl deceived one of the triplets, who is a sister
to his girlfriend, and took her to meet two
unknown men, where they used a machete to kill
the little girl, who is 10 years old. They promised
to give him ₦200,000, but even the ₦200,000, he
didn’t see."



In the video, Edafe explained that the female
suspect is the elder sister of 10-year-old
triplets and they are in her care.

Her boyfriend, the male suspect named Precious, 20, reportedly approached the female suspect to beg for one of the triplets. The girlfriend refused to release any of her 10-year-old sisters to him, so he went behind her and took one of them.

He then handed the girl to two men who had
promised to give him N200,000 if he brought
them a child.

After handing the child over to them, Precious
said he watched them butch£r her with a
cutlass. He said he felt "pain" when he saw her
get k!lled.

When the girlfriend noticed one of the triplets
was missing, she raised the alarm and made it
clear that her boyfriend had asked for one of the
girls.

Locals found the boyfriend and pounced on him
but police intervened, stopping the jungle justice being meted out on him.

Precious was arrested and his girlfriend was also detained because she failed to raise the alarm the moment he asked her for one of her sisters.

As for the two men who Precious gave the child,
they are still at large.



Precious claims the men are yet to pay him and
he has no idea where they are.

Bright Edafe added that even the remains of the
murd£red child have not been recovered.
