| Suspects; Eberechi and the son |
A middle-aged palm tree harvester, George
Maduabuchi, from Owerrinta in the Isiala-Ngwa South Local Government
Area of Abia State is in the police net for allegedly selling his
14-month-old son for N300,000.
The father of four was said to have connived with....
another suspect, Obinna Erondu, now at large, to perpetrate the act.
The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Joshak
Habila, who paraded the suspect along with other suspected criminals on
Thursday, said, “Luck ran out on Maduabuchi when the wife alerted the
police on his questionable role when the baby fell ill and he took him
out and did not return with him.”
But the suspect told our correspondent that he did not sell his son, but only took him to a herbalist when he took ill.
He said, “The herbalist gave me money and
told me that he could not heal the baby. I therefore left the baby in
the herbalist’s home.”
But his explanation was countered by his
wife, Eberechi, who said he took their son, who had a cough to the said
herbalist, but instead of returning with the baby, rather came back with
bundles of money.
Share your thoughts....thanks!
