Boy Allegedly Rapes and Kills His Mother in Delta
A shocking incident has hit a Delta State community after a young man, known only as Emem, allegedly raped and killed his own mother.
The suspect, who reportedly showed signs of mental illness, is said to have fled the scene. The crime happened on Eferemor Street near Ovie House in Agbarho, Ughelli North Local Government Area.
The tragedy occurred around 10:00 pm on Thursday night.
The victim’s younger son, who had just returned home that day, discovered his mother lying naked in a pool of blood. There were signs suggesting she had been sexually assaulted before being killed.
As of now, the suspect has not been arrested.
