The incident reportedly occurred on Christmas Eve somewhere in a suburb of Egor Local Government Area, Benin, Edo State, when the suspect allegedly invited the deceased to his family house, where he reportedly slaughtered her.
Operatives of Edo State Police Command have launched a manhunt for the suspect.

The suspect and his friend Akin, currently at large, allegedly killed the girl and removed vital organs.
