The Rivers State Police Command has arrested a lady in connection with the death of a barber popularly known as Otubong at his residence on Osina Street, Mile 2 Diobu, in the Port Harcourt area of the state.

A source said the lady, upon realising that the police were on her trail after she fled following Otubong’s death while they were reportedly engaging in a sex romp, turned herself in at the Azikiwe Police Division located at Illabuchi, Port Harcourt.

“Immediately she went to the police station, the lady was arrested and detained because the police have been searching for her since that time,” the source said.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Grace Iringe-Koko, confirmed her arrest.

“Yes, she has been arrested and the investigation is ongoing,” she said.

Meanwhile, the Vice Chairman of the Centre for Basic Rights Protection and Accountability Campaign, Afudoza Stephens, urged the police to carry out a thorough investigation and ensure that the lady was not stigmatised.

She added, “It is important that the police carry out their investigation without victimising the lady who we understand is now in their custody. Punch
