A 17-year-old Abba
Lawal, a native of Daura, has gruesomely murdered Magaji at his residence at
the Barhim Quarters, Katsina.
However, the police
took prompt actions to investigate the recent murder and arrested the suspect,
who was said to be with the deceased at the time of the murder.
Muhammad Hurdi, the
State Commissioner of Police, has said in a press statement on October 31,
2013, Thursday that the suspect had confessed to killing Magaji, whom he said
was his “boyfriend”.
Mr. Hurdi added that
the suspect confessed to the police that he killed Magaji, because he had made
a lot of promises to him [Lawal] which he had failed to redeem.
The CP also revealed
that the suspect confirmed to police that after he was dismissed from school,
due to his indulgence in homosexuality, Magaji had promised to get him back to
school but never did.
It has been learnt
that the suspect was the late council boss’ boyfriend who had visited him
severally in Kano and other places to carry out their affair discreetly, before
Lawal was allegedly invited to the house of the deceased on the ill-fated day.
“We recovered knives
and blood-stained clothes at the scene of the incident. Upon sighting the
knife, the suspect fainted and after recovering, he made all these confessions,”
the CP added.
