The
Lagos State Police Command on Tuesday arrested a pregnant woman, Esther
Peters for allegedly setting her husband, Anayo Kenneth Peters, ablaze
at Ijedemo village, Isheri Osun, at the outskirts of Lagos, on Tuesday
morning.
However,
the suspect denied being responsible for the crime. However, neighbours
said she was always in the habit of fighting with her late husband.
Lagos
State Deputy Police spokesman, Mr. Damasus Ozoani confirmed that she
had been arrested while the husband’s body has also been deposited in
the mortuary, pending police investigation.
Ozoani
said, “The police at Isheri Osun got a report that a woman at Ijedemo
village had set her husband ablaze. When our men got there, they saw the
woman trying to escape. They saw the man burnt to death.
“Immediately,
the police arrested the woman and took the body of the man to Yaba
General Hospital. The woman alleged that it was the candle light they
left in the house that sent the man to his early grave, but neighbours
said the man had a quarrel with the wife a day before the incident. We
are investigating the matter. The woman would be transferred to the
State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Panti, Yaba for discrete
investigation.”
