Police operatives in Jos, Plateau State have arrested one Mrs. Nneamaka Nwachuku, a microbiologist with one of the research institutes in Vom area of the state, for allegedly torturing her 11-year-old maid to death.
It was gathered that the Kebbi State-born victim, identified as Margaret Joshua, was fleeing from insecurity in her community before some supposed helper brought her to Jos to serve in the Nwachukwu’s home.
The suspect, a mother of two, did not enroll the victim in school since the girl was taken in by her family, but indulged in the daily beating of the girl.
During a recent beating, the girl was forced to sit in a container with hot water, which burnt her buttocks, and she died in the hospital on Monday, November 14.
The suspect confessed she has been beating her and claimed the girl used to masturbate, so she was punishing her so she that could stop.”
