A member of a vigilante group has been k#lled and his body set abl@ze at a market in Abuja over alleged bl@sphemy.
.
.
It was gathered that the unfortunate incident occurred at the Timber market section of Fruit Market in Federal Housing Estate, Lugbe, on Saturday afternoon, June 3.
.
.
According to Daily Trust, Eyewitnesses said the victim, a Muslim, was known for the act of ins#lting Prophet Muhammad.
.
.
Narrating what transpired, a trader identified simply as Halilu said, “The guy is known as Small Hundaru, that was not his first time of ins#lting the prophet before the action was taken.
.
.
He was caught after buying food in the market in the afternoon, because when the bl@sphemy occurred it was just few people who were there, then a stick was used to h#t him in the head. Though he had a g#n with him, it was retrieved before the be@ting.
.
.
Thereafter, he was st@ned before he ran to the office. His colleagues at the office were aware but they couldn’t shield him due to the number of people that chased him. After he was unconscious, petrol was poured over him and not to stoke any fear in the market, he was b#rnt in front of the office.”
