Suspected ritualists yesterday killed a woman in Ikare-Akoko, headquarters of Akoko Northeast Local Government Area of Ondo State, and removed her private part.
It was learnt that the body of the slain woman resembled that of a lunatic who usually stayed close to the cemetery opposite a bank on NTA Road.
Sympathisers, who thronged the scene, were said to have shed tears profusely, cursing the killers.
Police Area Commander for Akoko, Razak Rauf, an Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP), visited the scene.
He said his men were investigating the incident, adding that the culprits would be apprehended and prosecuted.
