The police in Lagos have arrested seven persons in connection with
the killing of a man during a New Year party in the Ajegunle area of the
state. Mohammed Ali, ACP in Charge of Area ‘B’ Command, told the News
Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos, that the suspects had been causing
trouble in the area even before the incident on Sunday.
``There was a party organised by some youths in Ajegunle area and our
preliminary investigation reveals that there was an argument between
the organisers over an undisclosed matter.
``A fight later broke out between two groups, which led to the
stabbing to death of one person. ``Several vehicles parked in the area
were vandalised and seven persons were arrested in connection with the
death and damages,’’ Ali said.
The ACP told NAN that the suspects had been transferred to the State
CID, Panti, for further investigation, while the corpse of the deceased
had been deposited at the public mortuary. (NAN)
