A young lady identified as Miss Chinyere Awuda has been beaten to death inside a popular hotel (name withheld) in Awka, Anambra State.
“They accused her of picking money which they were spraying on their friend while some said she did not only pick money from the floor but went for bundles of money, which one of them stacked by his seat side, waiting to spray on the celebrant.
“The girl was beaten when they caught her but despite efforts made by other people in the hotel to rescue the girl, they continued to beat and molest her. “She was later dragged outside the club, and her lifeless body dumped into the hotel’s swimming pool.” When contacted, the Anambra State Police spokesperson, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, confirmed the incident and said the birthday celebrator and his friends were already in police custody while the case is being investigated.
Ikenga said, “Four suspects are in our custody in connection with the incident, the hotel management assisted the police in arresting the suspects and investigation is still ongoing.
