Four brothers in the Ushongo Local Government Area of Benue were on Thursday remanded in Makurdi for allegedly killing a 35-year-old man in a police cell.

The brothers – Aondoyima Asua, Terpav Asua, Terkula Asua and Luher Asua – were charged with conspiracy, trespass, mischief and murder.

They appeared before a Makurdi Chief Magistrates’ Court.

The Chief Magistrate, Mr Vincent Kor, did not take the plea of the defendants for want of jurisdiction.

He ordered that they should be kept at the Correctional Centre, Benue.

Kor adjourned the case until March 15, for mention.

Earlier, the prosecutor, Sgt. Godwin Ato, told the court that the case was transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Makurdi, on Jan. 21.

Ato said that the letter transferring the suspects indicated that one Vashima Wevergh of RCM Church, Mbator Agbede, Konshisha Local Government Area of Benue, told a police station on Jan. 13. that her elder brother, Moses Wevergh, was killed.

According to Ato, the complainant said that on Jan.12, her brother was accused of causing the disappearance of the manhood of one Mr Aondoungwa Asua.

He added that the complainant said that when Aondoungwa raised alarm about losing his manhood, the defendants and some others at large, trespassed into a police outpost at Ikyobo and beat her brother, cut him with machetes and axed him to death.

The prosecutor told the court that the defendants were arrested during the police investigation.

According to Ato, the alleged offences contravene Sections 97, 349, 329 and 222 of the Penal Code Law of Benue, 2004. (NAN)

uhm still criminals even after arrest.

How about the incompetent DPO that his station was infiltrated?

Is case get k-leg

Haba.
So in this age there are some people that believe someone can make another man's manhood to disappear?
I won't be surprised if the duty officers in the police station that day are also staunch believers of that fairy tale,hence they looked the other way as those brothers hacked the man to death.
Despite the advent of internet and smart phones,I have not seen any remarkable change in the primitive beliefs and ways of many Nigerians.
They still believe widely in witchcraft,that someone can remotely control another's destiny from a village,that people can turn to birds to fly in the night to cause harm,that there is magun,that parts of human being can be harvested to make money and that manhoods can be made to disappear.
The annoying part is that this belief is not limited to some village dwellers or old people,but you see so called graduates,including multiple degree,pH.D holders and professors that believe these things 101%!

Those who claim that a man's manhood can disappear please if the manhood disappears, will that place be sealed up and smooth, i will like to see the picture of a body with penis disappeared
