The Rivers State police command has confirmed the re-arrest of fleeing suspected ritual killer, Ifeanyi Dike. The on-the-run suspect is key to unraveling motive of his killing of an eight-year-old girl and the culpability of the police in his escape.
Rivers State Commissioner of Police Zaki Ahmed said the suspect was arrested in Jos, Plateau State by men of Special Anti-Robbery squad in the state in the early hours of Friday.
In what appears to be place a tag of serial criminal on him, the suspect allegedly broke into the home of an unnamed resident and stabbed him in what appears to be a robbery incident. The Rivers command is currently working with its counterpart in Jos to bring him back to Port Harcourt to face the law, the police.
A police source said he is expected back to Rivers State in days.
Dike is the 200-level student of the University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT), who was earlier arrested by the Rivers State command of the Nigeria Police for allegedly raping and killing an eight-year-old girl and cutting off some parts of her body for ritual purposes.
His escape from police custody was suspicious and his re-arrest would give a clear lead into the role played by the police in his escape.
