A young man, who claimed to have gone to a cemetery to exhume the corpse of his son, was last week arrested by police detectives in Bauchi with the head of a male child wrapped in a cloth.
The 25-year-old man, Maikudi Mohammed, according to the Bauchi State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Haruna Mohammed, was arrested in Misau Local Government Area of the state.
The state police image-maker noted that preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect, who hails from Galambi village in Bauchi Local Government, conspired with his accomplice, one Damina Mohammed, aged 26.
The suspects, according to DSP Mohammed, went to a graveyard in Galambi village to exhume the head of a male child corpse to sell to a customer, now at large. The PPRO said that the suspect confessed that the child was his son, who died and was buried but that he later went back to the graveyard at night with his accomplice to exhume it.
The police spokesman added that the case was under investigation after which the suspects would be charged to court for prosecution.
