Two men have been arrested for the alleged murder of a Police Inspector, Ibrahim Maizabuwa, in Adamawa State.
The deceased was attached to Gombe State Police Command.
The spokesman for the Adamawa State police command, Suleiman Nguroje, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday in Yola.
He said the two men were among the five other suspects who allegedly committed the crime at Wamsa Suwa Village in Lamurde local government area of the state.
The spokesman said: “The suspects, Ezekiel Kefas, 67 years, and Stephen Zabadi, 44 years all residents of Wamsa Suwa village, on November 11, 2024, conspired, isolated, killed, and buried the victim.
“The victim visited them in their village to demand the return of his three cows which he gave the first suspect to use and boost his farming activities.
“On November 19, 2024, when the command received a complaint from Danlami Maizabuwa, the victim’s son, the suspects took detectives of the Anti-Homicide Unit of the Police Command to a shallow grave of the deceased where the corpse was exhumed for autopsy.”
