A middle-age man identified as Mr John Omorodion has been reported dead following serious attacks in his house, in Benin City, Edo State on Febuary 7th 2024.
The incident which occured recently according to an eyewitness is not unconnected with the search for their prime target, one Mr. Ehizogie Omozee, a son-in-law to the deceased.
According to eyewitness account, Mr. Omorodion’s refusal to disclose the whereabouts of his son-in-law led to the hoodlums to seriously attack him which led to his death
Speaking with our Crime Correspendent, an eyewitness and one of the occupants of the house where the incident occurred, Mrs. Omoregie Erese, said that the hoodlums numbering about five stormed their residence in a commando-like-style, and demanded the whereabouts of Omozee from his father-in-law.
She maintained that all entreaties made by the deceased to the assailants fell on deaf ears, hence, he was seriously beaten up and later died in the hospital.
The source revealed that the assailants had earlier invaded their residence, where they warned the deceased to either produce his son-in-law else, he will be killed, a threat she said the deceased never took seriously
It would be recalled that Omozee, has been declared wanted by a suspected cult group.
All efforts to get reaction from the police proved abortive
