Murdered 8yr-old: Rivers Police arrest man who asked UNIPORT student to get human parts for money ritual

Investigations into the murder of eight-year-old Chikamso, a little girl who was last Saturday raped, murdered and her vital body parts cut off by a 200-level undergraduate of the University of Port Harcourt UNIPORT, Ifeanyi Dike pictured above, took a new twist this morning, as the man who allegedly asked Dike, who is currently on the run, to get human body parts so they can use it for money ritual, was apprehended by officers of the Rivers state police command this morning.

The state commissioner of Police, Zaki Ahmed, disclosed the latest development in an interview with Channels TV this morning.

"I’m delighted to inform you that the second suspect who the principal suspect alleged asked him to get those parts has been arrested this morning (Thursday). There are two of them. The principal suspect when he was arrested, he confessed to committing the crime and he mentioned that someone asked him to get some parts of a human being for them to make money. So that person has been arrested this morning. I strongly suspect that this person we have arrested is involved in the crime. The boy gave his name and gave his number and he mentioned that this is the person who asked him to get these human parts that they are going to make money" he said

Dike was apprehended on Saturday while trying to dispose of the victim's body. He was arrested but however escaped from detention on Sunday night. The police boss said his men are working towards getting him rearrested.
