Abducted ex-cult leader found dead

Firstclass newsline learnt that thirty-year-old Godwin Victor,
akaSangba, who was abducted by members of his former cult group for
embracing normal life, has been found dead.
It was learnt that Sangba's hands and legs were tied, while a log of
wood was also tied to his neck before he was thrown into the Lagoon.
Policemen reportedly recovered his corpse around the UNILAG waterfront
on Thursday.
A source had reported last Friday that Sangba had quit his group due
to fear for his safety and police harassment.
Some of his friends, who did not support his decision, attacked him.
He was said to have moved to Port Harcourt after increased threats to his life.
However, when he came back to check his family, he was abducted.
The family had reported at the Bariga Police Division, after which the
police started looking for him.
A police source said, "The man has been killed. His two hands and legs
were tied with ropes. The cult guys tied a heavy log of wood to his
neck and threw him into the Lagoon. His corpse was recovered around
the UNILAG waterfront."
The Police Public Relations Officer, Kenneth Nwosu, also confirmed the
development.
He said, "His wife reported a case of missing person to the police on
Monday. Since then, we had been out looking for him until on Thursday
when we were informed that a corpse was found inside the Lagoon. It
turned out to be him."
Nwosu said the victim's remains had been deposited in a mortuary,
while the matter had been transferred to the State Department of
Criminal Investigation.
