Police Recover Corpses Of Three Plateau State Youths Dumped In Soak-away
2022-01-28


The lifeless bodies of three persons have been recovered from a cesspit of a dispersed settlement at Agingin community in the Bassa local government area of Plateau state.

It was learnt that their suspected killer, a 31-year-old Samson Eze had separately lured his victims— all equally known to him—from their workplace as transport workers in Jos to his older brother's residence in Bassa where he had killed and hidden their bodies.

Eze also carted away their two tricycles and one cycle of violence as he planned to sell them off to sponsor his flight out of the state.

The Divisional Police Officer of Bassa LGA, James Yakubu, confirmed the incident on Wednesday.

Yakubu said that they were incited to act as soon as the case was reported by the relative who had, accidentally, made a discovery of the bodies at his house over the weekend.

The DPO added that while the bodies were being retrieved and taken to the mortuary, the suspect had been arrested and transferred to the State CID for further investigation.

Found at the disposal of the suspect, alongside the looted cycles of his victims, were full military regalia and weapon of attack, all of which had been withdrawn from his residence.
