Tragedy struck during the weekend in Odigbo Local Government Area of Ondo State following the killing of an 80-year-old grandmother.

 

 

The body of the octogenarian was found inside her farm in the Costain axis of the local government following suspicion that she had been raped before her assailants murdered her.

 

 

Before her body was discovered, the deceased had been declared missing since last Wednesday, when she failed to return home after leaving her farm.

Sources within the agrarian community argued that the victim was raped to death, particularly in the position in which her corpse was discovered.

One of the sources hinted that there had been cases of rape in the community in recent times, a situation she said had prevented most of the women in the community from going to the farm alone.

 

 

The source added that a suspect, Sunday, who is a popular palm wine tapper within the community, had been arrested by some youths after the mobile phone of the deceased elderly woman was found on him.
