Three boys were murdered in cold blood last Saturday at a home in Nise Community, Awka South Local Government Area of Anambra State.
Reports indicate that the murderer is said to have scaled the walls of the building to gain entrance into the compound to execute his plot and also left the compound unnoticed.
It is reported that the three little boys, whose ages ranged between six years and two years, were at their parents’ residence when an unidentified person or persons, though not clear at the time of this report, were found inside their father’s car parked inside the compound after they had been murdered with their mouths tied up and in a pool of blood.
It was also gathered that their father, a young man in his early thirties, is a native doctor and businessman who always locked the children up inside the compound while he left for business along with their mother but came home to serve them meals and returned to his business after locking them up.
The father, whose name is yet to be made public, was reported to have been having issues with some unconfirmed persons, but it cannot be established if the face-off led to the death of the three children.
The incident has been reported to the police in the area, but when contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, said that the report had not reached his office for comments, promising to state the position of the matter after being properly briefed.
