It was gathered that the deceased was shot dead on Sunday, February 16, at Leo Igor Street in Ozoro.<\/p>\n

However, at the time of filing this report, it is clear if the victim was a member of any cult group.<\/p>\n

The latest incident has brought the number of cult killings which had taken place within the last weekend to three.<\/p>\n

Delta State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Bright Edafe, confirmed the incident in a text message sent to our correspondent in Warri on Monday.<\/p>\n
