Operatives of the Bauchi State Police Command have arrested a 40-year-old man, Nuhu Umar Usman, for culpable homicide.

Spokesperson of the command, SP Ahmed Mohammed Wakil, in a statement on Thursday, January 5, said Usman, of Dangarfa village in Kyata Burra District, shot dead his first wife, Ladi Nuhu, after mistaking her for an intruder.

According to the PPRO, there was an altercation between the suspect’s two wives and his eldest son, who held a grudge against him and had threatened to harm him.

This made the suspect load his dane gun and keep it beside him throughout the night waiting for the intruder, possibly his eldest son.

Wakil said the deceased had gone out of the room to ease herself and was on her way back when the husband woke up upon hearing a suspicious move close to his room.

He picked up the loaded gun and directly fired at her in the stomach. Ladi was rushed to a hospital where she was confirmed dead by a doctor on duty.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect slept same room with his wife (Deceased) that night, the suspect had two wives and six children,” the statement read.
