From Sani Gazas Chinade, Damaturu
In a significant update on the tragic murder of Fatima Alhaji Bukar, the daughter of a Borno lawmaker, the Borno State Police Command has apprehended Adam Alhaji Ibrahim, the husband of the late Fatima.
Fatima was brutally murdered by unknown assailants in her residence at Dikechiri Bayan Gidan Dambe in Maiduguri.
As previously reported by PRIME TIME NEWS, the perpetrators of this heinous crime tied Fatima with ropes, covered her mouth to stifle any cries for help, and mercilessly stabbed her from various angles, resulting in her untimely death.
A source within the family revealed that Adam Alhaji Ibrahim was taken into custody on the night of the incident.
This development comes after Governor Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum issued a directive for an autopsy to be conducted on the deceased’s body at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital.
Prior to this recent turn of events, the family had scheduled Fatima’s burial for Wednesday at 2:00 pm at the 707 Housing Estate in Maiduguri.
Governor Zulum’s decision to order an autopsy stems from his commitment to uncover the truth behind this gruesome act and ensure that those responsible face justice.
