A man, Hussaini Lawal, and his pregnant wife, were penultimate Saturday found dead on their bed inside their apartment at Wuse Zone 4 in Abuja.

 An elder brother of the late Lawal, Auwal, told City & Crime that his brother, who was a Bureau de Change (BDC) operative, was last seen on Thursday evening in his office located a walk’s distance from his house where he lived with other tenants.

 He further said, “They lived on the second floor of a three-storey apartment at Agric Quarters. His vehicle was in the compound. Their apartment was locked from within. So, after several calls to their mobile phones were not answered, I suggested, while on my way coming from Kano, that the door be forced open on Saturday.”

City & Crime further learnt that the matter was reported at the Wuse Zone 3 Police Division and that following a preliminary investigation, their remains were taken to the Wuse General Hospital and later buried on the same day.

Meanwhile, it was learnt that two empty take-away food containers and empty soft drinks cans were among the exhibits taken by detectives from their room, including their mobile phones.

Spokesperson of the FCT Police Command, SP Josephine Adeh, was yet to respond to a message sent to her on the incident.
