Her body was found on the road without private parts along Okpala Iho – Atta road in the area. Eyewitnesses said the incident happened on Saturday but no one knows the people who executed the murder.
“Nobody could narrate what transpired. The people just woke up on Saturday morning and saw a beheaded body without private parts lying on the Amanwaozuzu – Ogwa road. On reaching there, it was discovered that it was a young girl,” one of the sources said.
According to them, nobody could identify the victim because her head had been chop off by the fleeing ritualists. The body of the girl was later evacuated by security agents.
According to him, the people were living in the fear of the beheading and the taking away of the victim’s genital organs and breasts, adding that a state of panic had engulfed the community.
