A Policeman allegedly
killed his 19-month-old baby after battering his wife in Benin, weekend.
We gathered
that the incident occurred at a flat in Sam Enobakhare Crescent, off St.
Saviour Road, Benin.
His wife said
last Tuesday they were at home when her husband’s countenance suddenly changed
and when she tried to find out why, he pounced on her.
Contacted, Dr.
Jolly Nosakhare Iguma, the Chief Medical Director of Jonos Medical Clinic where
the baby was taken to, said a mother and her daughter brought in a dead baby a
few days ago.
He said: “On
close examination the baby was pale, yellowish, with tooth bite injuries on his
face.
“Since the
baby is not old enough to fight with any person, I wondered who bit the baby.
However, if he was brought in early enough, the baby would have been transfused
with blood. He may have died of jaundice.”
When
newsmen visited the residence weekend, it was deserted as neighbors claimed not
to have seen any of its occupants in the past few days.
