The suspect, who is a butcher and resident of Sabon Gari-Futy in Girei local government area, subdued the deceased, by st+bbing her severally with a sharp kn+f£ on her back, thereby causing her severe inj¥ries and leaving her in a pool of bl%od.
The State Command Public Relations Officer, SP Suleiman Yahaya Nguroje, noted that the suspect br¥tally k+ll£d the deceased on April 8 at about 4:30 am, after he accused her of taking away his phone, which led to little argument.

The suspect voluntarily made a confessional statement, adding that he regretted k+lling the mother of their only child.
