A newly married woman, Zainab Muhammad, has allegedly killed her husband, Abubakar Abdurrahman, barely 3 days after their wedding in Jibia, Katsina State.
The couple reportedly tied the knot on Thursday afternoon in the Jibia area of Katsina state.
However, according to a neighbor, the tragic incident occurred yesterday afternoon when Zainab allegedly slaughtered her groom.
The neighbor who spoke to The Daily Reality said the shocking incident happened inside the couple’s residence, throwing the community into confusion.
Speaking on the cause, the ward head told our reporter that the suspect had been battling what he described as “jinn/[demons]-related problems,” which he believes may have influenced her actions.
He noted that community members were aware of her condition prior to the incident.
Abubakar’s remains were buried yesterday at about 5 p.m. according to Islamic rites.
Police authorities have taken the suspect into custody for further investigation into the circumstances surrounding the killing.
