The FCT Police Command has responded to the incident. According to the police spokesperson, CSP Josephine Adeh, the Commissioner of Police, CP Ajao S. Adewale, has directed a full and quiet investigation to uncover the truth behind what happened.

‘’Preliminary investigation reveals that the victim, later identified as Aladi Offikwu Johnson, also known as Tessy, a female from Benue State, checked into a hotel located at 3rd Avenue, Gwarinpa, on 16th June, 2025, in the company of an unidentified male who was later observed to have exited the premises without her.

The victim was discovered unconscious by hotel staff during routine service rounds, prompting immediate notification to the Police. She was confirmed dead upon medical evaluation.
