According to a report by PUNCH, a suspected gay named Mohammed Snu was murdered by his partner, Mohammed Umar, inside a room of a hotel in Garki, Abuja for refusing to pay him for sex.
According to reports, Umar stabbed Snu (whose body is pictured being taken away by policemen) multiple times in the ribs with a screw driver last Thursday Dec. 4th after he, Snu, refused to pay Umar for a second round of sex.
A source in the hotel told Punch that Snu was a regular in the hotel and that he had invited Umar to his room for sex. The two men had sex twice, but Snu allegedly refused to pay for the second round, which led to a fight.
The source said,
โThe man had just come back from a mosque where he went for prayers with his partner when we heard a loud noise from his room and a voice saying โya kuri (please, donโt be angry)โ. By the time we forced the door open, we saw Umar standing naked and Snu lying dead on the bed with stab injuries on his body. We immediately called the police and Umar was arrested.โ
The police later arrested the hotel manager for interrogation after removing the corpse from the hotel.
The FCT Police Public Relations Officer, Peter Okechukwu, who confirmed the incident, explained that the deceased invited the suspect to massage him in his hotel room, saying he had pains in his ribs.
โIn the course of the massage, Snu asked Umar to undress for sex, and from there, they engaged in a scuffle leading to the stabbing of the deceased by the suspect. It was the loud noise from their room that attracted the hotel workers.
โWhen our men got to the hotel, we found the deceased and the suspect naked. Investigations have commenced and we will soon know what actually transpired behind the closed door.โ He said
