Police operatives attached to Kano State command have arrested a 24-year-old woman, Hafusat Surajo, who stabbed to death a middle-aged man, Nafiu Hafix Gorondo, over allegation that he (Gorondo) prevented her from committing suicide.
While speaking to the press, the state Commissioner of Police, Mr Husani Gumel, disclosed that Hafusat confessed that she killed Gorondo because he did not allow her to kill herself.
It was learnt that Gorondo was living with Hafusat in her matrimonial house as a driver and was also assisting her husband in doing other tasks he might be assigned.
The CP added that after the woman had killed Gorondo, in an attempt to cover up so that people would not know that Gorondo was killed, her husband called for the assistance of a man to wash the body.
He hinted that after the body had been washed, the couple notified Gorondo’s family that he (Gorondo) had died and they should come and convey his corpse for burial, but on arrival, the family asked that the cloth used to cover the corpse should be removed.
It was in the process of removing the cloth that the Gorondo family discovered that he was stabbed to death.
They immediately informed the police of the incident
But while speaking with the press in an interview, Hafusat said she stabbed the man to death because he always prevented her from committing suicide.
