Enugu Police have arrested a man who allegedly collected N200,000 from a native doctor to kill another man.
Onyekachi Idoko of Ifuroka Amalla Udenu and his accomplices allegedly killed one Onyemachi Eze.
Police spokesperson in the state, Ebere Amaraizu, said Idoko disclosed that the native doctor, Felix Akor, told them that Eze had ‘diabolically killed’ two siblings of the wife of the native doctor, who were named Blessing and John.
He said Idoko was arrested by officers from the Udenu Police Division after a tip-off from members of the public.
The police also arrested the native doctor, Akor.
“The suspect (Idoko) fled after committing the offence, but was nabbed at Inyi in Igboeze North local government area of the state through a well-coordinated operation borne out of intelligence information,” Amaraizu said.
He said the suspect had confessed to the crime.
“He is now helping in investigations as he has given insight on how he and his gang allegedly collected N200, 000 from the native doctor, Felix Akor to murder the victim.”
Amaraizu said Akor was also cooperating with the police for investigations.
