Court Remands Four for ‘Removing Colleague’s Heart’
A Yaba Chief Magistrates’ Court in Lagos yesterday ordered four men to be remanded in Ikoyi Prisons for allegedly killing their colleague and removing his heart for a ritual.
Daniel Luka, 24, Audu Isaiah, 24, Wavi David, 20 and Ayuba Musa, 24. They are standing trial on a two-count charge of conspiracy and murder.
Prosecuting Sergeant Modupe Olaluwoye told the court that the men committed the offences on May 22 at Alasia along Oke-Ira road in Ajah, near Lagos.
Olaluwoye alleged that the accused had been patronising a ritualist, who had asked them for a human heart in exchange for wealth.
She said the accused had lured their 21-year-old brother, James Isaiah, into the bush, where they killed him with a knife and cut off his heart.
“The police were able to trace them to their house where they had admitted killing their brother for ritual purposes.”
“The ritualist is, however, still at large,” she said.
The accused pleaded not guilty. Magistrate Oluwatoyin Oghere ordered that the case file should be sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for advice.
She adjourned the case till August 15.
