landlord over rent is now cooling
his heels in police custody.
41-year-old man whose name was
given as Wilfred, is in the police
net for murdering his landlord
because the man was ‘disturbing’
him to pay his rent arrears.
The incident happened in Agbor
community, Delta State.
The culprit allegedly confessed to
the police that he committed the
crime under serious provocation
because his landlord had
threatened to kill him if he refused
to pay up and in the ensuing fight
that followed the argument, he
picked an hard object and hit his
landlord and he slumped and died
on the spot.
Reports have it that the suspect had
owed his landlord seven months
rent and paid for two months,
promising to pay the remaining
months he never did, a situation
that stirred the anger of his
landlord at weekend, resulting in
the tragic fight.
