No fewer than six persons that were allegedly involved in the hacking to
death of a rice merchant in Yashikira town in Baruten local government
council of Kwara state have been paraded by the state police command.
Mrs. Florence Ede, a widow, was hacked to death last week Thursday on her rice farm in Yashikra town.
She was also known as Madam Do Good.
Men of the state police command had since commenced investigations into the dastardly act and later had a breakthrough.
Parading the suspects before journalists
in Ilorin on Thursday, the state police commissioner, Mr. Olusola
Amore, said that the affected suspects would be charged with culpable
homicide at the court of law.
The police boss, who said the woman had
engaged the suspected men as labourers on her farm, decided to sleep on
the farm when it was dark.
He said the suspects allegedly descended on the victim in the night, killing her and carting away 12 bags of rice.
