Police to charge man to court for assaulting lady over pot of soup
The Abia State Police Command says it has apprehended a 37-year-old man, Agwu Ukpo, who was captured in a viral video assaulting a woman in Aba.
According to the Police Command, the suspect, who is an indigene of Akanu Ohafia, assaulted the victim, Amarachi Chinyere, over a dispute relating to a pot of soup.
The Police Public Relations Officer of the Abia State Police Command, DSP Maureen Chinaka, said the suspect was arrested by operatives of the Violent Crime Response Unit (VCRU), Abia Command, who leveraged actionable intelligence.
DSP Chinaka, who said the case is currently under discreet investigation at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), assured the public that the suspect would be charged to court upon the conclusion of investigations.
The Abia State Police Command strongly condemned the barbaric and inhumane act of domestic violence and reiterated that such behaviour is unacceptable under any circumstances.
“Members of the public are hereby urged to desist from all forms of violence, as the Command remains fully committed to ensuring justice is served in the state and that perpetrators of crime will be made to face the wrath of the law,” the police statement said.
