Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Operatives of the Bauchi State Police Command\u2019s Operations Restore Peace, ORP, have apprehended Muhammad Ibrahim, a 19-year-old resident of Sabon Layi, Kano Road, Bauchi, for the alleged murder of his Facebook girlfriend, Emmanuella Ande.<\/p>\n

The tragic incident was said to have occurred on December 18 at the Happiness Garden Hotel in Bayan Gari, where Ibrahim reportedly stabbed Ande in the upper chest.<\/p>\n

According to the spokesperson for the command, Ahmed Wakil, the victim\u2019s cries drew attention, leading people to forcefully open the door in an attempt to rescue her.<\/p>\n

In his bid to escape, Ibrahim also stabbed another victim, Zaharaddeen Adamu, 36, in the left hand.<\/p>\n

Wakil, in the statement made available to journalists in Bauchi on Wednesday, said the intervention of police operatives saved the accused from mob action.<\/p>\n

The statement disclosed that the accused and the victim had connected on Facebook in 2023, and their relationship led to Ibrahim allegedly stealing \u20a6400,000 from his father\u2019s account to spend time with Ande in Port Harcourt.<\/p>\n

But tragedy struck when Ande reportedly demanded the sum of N5,000, which the suspect owed her, leading to a heated argument and a physical confrontation resulting in her death.<\/p>\n

Wakil stated that upon receiving the report, the ORP team swiftly rescued the accused and took the body of the deceased to Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH) in Bauchi, where she was certified dead.<\/p>\n

\u201cZaharaddeen was treated and discharged from the police clinic, while Ibrahim, after treatment at the same clinic, is currently under investigation.<\/p>\n

\u201cExhibits recovered from the suspect include a knife. Investigation is ongoing, after which the suspect will be charged in court,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n
