A man identified as Samuel Onyekwelu has been arrested by the Anambra State Police command, for allegedly pouring acid on his niece, Chinyere Okeke.
According to reports, the incident happened on Friday, May 18,2018, at Odidama village Agulu, while Chinyere's fiancé, Chinedu Anagor, was taking her and her kid home on his motorcycle.
Onyekwelu allegedly ambushed and poured acid on them. He was subsequently apprehended by the youth of the community and handed over to the police, while the victims were rushed to the hospital.
According to one Ezeani Chidubem, the cause of the attack, was because Onyekwelu, who married with children, was in a relationship with his niece, Chinyere. Onyekwelu is a bother to Chinyere's father. Alongthe line, Chinedu Anagor fell in love with her and had planned to seek her hand in marriage by june 2018, but Onyekwelu objected simply because of his illicit affairs with Chinyere.
It was gathered that sometimes last year, spiritual cleansing was performed regarding the sexual relationship between the duo, but the act was reported to have continued till Chinedu "snatched" her from Onyekwelu.
