The house owner, Chief Alfred Onavwa, who shares the top floor of the one-storey building with one of the deceased, confirmed the incident. He said having been contacted on the absence of one of the deceased by neighbours he called his line only to realize that his mobile phone was ringing upstairs.
He explained
further: “On getting close to the door of the private stairway leading to their
apartment, I noticed that it was locked from inside, with a stench oozing out. “On
realizing this, I personally invited the police who came and broke the door
only to discover their decomposing bodies.
“Their
remains were later deposited in the mortuary and I was made to understand that
investigation into the matter was ongoing. “Even the Ughelli Divisional Police
Officer was here to see things for himself.”
Meanwhile,
findings revealed that the couple, whose wedding was slated for November 22,
had started preparation, with invitation cards already sent out to intending
guests.
When
contacted for comments, Ughelli Divisional Police Officer, Samuel Musa, neither
debunked nor confirmed the incident. He directed all comments on the matter to
the state Police Public Relation Officer, Deputy Superintendent of Police,
Celestina Kalu.
However, at
press time, calls and messages to her phone were yet to be replied.
