Lifeless body of a yet-to-be-identified woman has been reportedly found in a bush along Amaraku-Umudim Road in Isiala-Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State.
PUNCH Online gathered that the deceased woman was pregnant and her upper garment was removed.
The incident, according to reports, happened in the early hours of Tuesday and her identity had remained.
A resident, who wished to remain anonymous, told PUNCH Online that the woman’s body showed no signs of blood or trauma.
The source said, “It happened in the morning of Tuesday. The woman was killed and dumped in the bush along Amaraku-Umudim Road. She is pregnant and was stripped naked of her upper wear.
“But the confusing thing is that she did not sustain any blood stain as to link her death to assassins or gunmen. We are yet to find out exactly what led to her death.”
When contacted, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Henry Okoye, said he had yet to be briefed on the matter but promised to revert as soon as the command got information and didn’t get back as of the time of filing this report.
