A mob in Anambra State descended on woman whose husband passed away during a sex romp.
The incident happened in Aguleri, Anambra East Local Government Area.
The deceased identified as Udoji, reportedly died while having sex with the wife who bored him no child. The argument that there was no child between them and allegation that the woman was in extra marital affair informed a mob attack.
She was stripped naked and beaten with the moment captured in a video which went viral.
Some of her attackers have been arrested, according to a statement the police released wherein the supposed indiscretion was condemned.
It reads in part: “The Anambra State Police Operatives have…rescued a female victim from an angry mob in Aguleri. The rescue was as a result of a…trending video in which a lady was publicly molested and assaulted for an alleged incident of causing the death of her late husband.”
The police spokesman said Commissioner of Police Echeng Echeng described the act as barbaric.
“Further information reveals that the deceased had already been buried before the video started trending. The victim was rescued and she is currently receiving medical care in the hospital,” Tochukwu said.
