The police in Kano on Friday said they have arrested a woman over the death of her teenage house help under mysterious circumstances.
Khadija Musa, 19, an indigene of Kwara State, arrived in Kano three months ago and was engaged as a house help by the suspect in Salanta quarters of the Kano metropolis. The police are withholding the suspect’s name.
According to the police, witnesses, including those who washed the victim’s body, said it had several wounds and cuts that suggested she had been cruelly beaten.
However, the suspect reportedly told the police that Miss Musa died after being bitten by a cat.
