Ritual killer beheads 76-yr-old, weighs skull, other parts before selling

What Ismail Muraina does for a living is such that requires no heart, but a cleaver and  some kind of scale.

He looks for people, size them up following clients’ specific orders by his clients, and kill them.

He then sells the butchered remains—based on their weights.

His last victim was a 76-year-old man, Adeniyi Adebisi Samuel, whom Muraina  murdered the Akanran area of Ibadan.

Pa Samuel had a call from Muraina for a meeting. The suspect said he wanted to send some money to the man’s son, a daughter of the late father explained.

But Muaraina gave his own account, a lie, for killing the old man. He said he first hexed Pa Samuel because he was senile.

The criminal worked with other murderers, including Abdlerasheed Olanrewaju and Olalekan Akande.

According to Kazeem Akinro, the deputy commandant of Oyo Amotekun, the suspects confessed that they sold human heads based on size and customers’ purses.

Akinro added that the suspects sell human parts to the ritualists who are in need of human parts between N4,000 and N100,000.

It was community intelligence that tipped of the security outfit.
