The Ondo State Police Command has arrested three people in connection with the death of a woman, Mrs Iyanuoluwa Adamolekun, in Arigidi Akoko, Akoko North-West Local Government Area of the state.
The accused were only identified as Oluwaseun, Mobarak, and Rilwan.
Oluwaseun is Mobarak’s mother and the housekeeper.
Adamolekun, a retired teacher, was allegedly murdered while sleeping in her bed by the accused, who also took away her mobile phone last week.
Her lifeless body was allegedly discovered by her grandchild.
According to reports, the police followed the deceased’s phone, which led to the arrest of one of the suspects, who then supported the police in apprehending other suspects.
The two suspects (Mobarak and Rilwan) admitted to scaling the fence rather than entering through the main gate to avoid making a sound.
“Having gained entry into the house that afternoon, they went straight to the deceased room, where she was lying on her bed after taking her bath. They confessed that they used a wooden box to shatter her head while the woman was screaming that the second suspect strangled her.”
