Investigations
into the murder of eight-year-old Chikamso, a little girl who was last Saturday
raped, murdered and her vital body parts cut off by a 200-level undergraduat
e
of the University of Port Harcourt UNIPORT, Ifeanyi Dike pictured above, took a
new twist this morning, as the man who allegedly asked Dike, who is currently
on the run, to get human body parts so they can use it for money ritual, was
apprehended by officers of the Rivers state police command this morning.
The state
commissioner of Police, Zaki Ahmed, disclosed the latest development in an
interview with Channels TV this morning.
"I’m
delighted to inform you that the second suspect who the principal suspect
alleged asked him to get those parts has been arrested this morning (Thursday).
There are two of them. The principal suspect when he was arrested, he confessed
to committing the crime and he mentioned that someone asked him to get some
parts of a human being for them to make money. So that person has been arrested
this morning. I strongly suspect that this person we have arrested is involved
in the crime. The boy gave his name and gave his number and he mentioned that
this is the person who asked him to get these human parts that they are going
to make money" he said
Dike was
apprehended on Saturday while trying to dispose of the victim's body. He was
arrested but however escaped from detention on Sunday night. The police boss
said his men are working towards getting him rearrested.
