Asked if the victim was strangled like the past events in the state he said, there was no sign of any form of scuffle on the corpse adding that apart from the fiamlile substance on her mouth and that she had no shirts on, the pair of blue jean trousers she was wearing were intact on her.
Omoni noted that manhunt has been staged to identify and apprehend the culprit assuring that he would be made to face the wrath of the law when arrested.
