40-Year-Old Man Strangled Lady, Slept With Corpse In Lagos
The police have apprehended a 40-year-old man, Adetomiwa Adeyinka, in the Ahmadiyya Ijaiye area of Ojokoro, Lagos, on charges of strangling his girlfriend who had visited his house, and then engaging in necrophilic acts with her body.
On September 12, Adeyinka approached the police with a fabricated story, claiming that his girlfriend, 36-year-old Chinonso Okomadu from Ikotun, had fallen seriously ill during her visit and was taken to a private hospital, where she was declared deceased.
However, during questioning, he admitted to strangling the woman and engaging in inappropriate acts with her body.
Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, confirmed the incident. He stated that the case had been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID) and that the suspect would face charges in court once the investigation concludes.
Hundeyin emphasized that this matter would be handled with utmost seriousness, and warned that criminals would not evade justice in the state.
