Just one week after she wed her husband, a 32-year-old woman was discovered dead in her home.According to reports, Muniratu Moro, a second wife who was married, was discovered on September 6 with a cut to her throat and a thigh at her marital house in Abeka. She was found dead in a pool of blood.
The relatives of Munira Moro stated in a Joynews interview that they believe she was murdered. Her brother, who believed it to be manslaughter, claimed the family would fight any attempts to bury her right away as per Muslim tradition.
“I had a call around 9 PM that my sister has been stabbed, so I thought I was going to see the body with a small cut but when I got there, it was a different thing together.
“She was killed in her room and then dragged into her rival’s room, the way she died was not natural and we need to know how she was murdered,” the brother of the deceased, Mohammed Samba said.
“…for you to live in the house like that even if you beat your, son, in your room, your neighbor will hear it, for someone to be killed in that manner and dragged into a different room and nobody is telling us anything and you want us to bury her immediately after she died?
According to reports, Muniratu’s family has refused to let the husband’s family bury her because they want the authorities to perform an autopsy test first.
She was butchered like an animal, so we can let it go, another family member added.
The first husband and wife of Muniratu have been detained by authorities and are actively cooperating with their investigations.
