The Anambra State Police Command has arrested a male suspect, Chima Ofoeke, in connection
with the suspected murder of 23-year-old Mmesoma Umeorini in Uga, Aguata Local Government

efforts to establish her whereabouts.

members of the Agunechemba security outfit in Uga, arrested the suspect, who was

victim following the breakdown of their relationship. He subsequently led detectives
to the location where the remains of the deceased were discovered and recovered.
