The Enugu State Government has ordered full autopsy on the body of Mrs. Regina Mba, the middle-aged woman who was allegedly killed in Nchatancha area of the state, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV had reported that some hoodlums, on Thursday, reportedly raped and stabbed Mrs Mba to death in cold blood, in Enugu East Local Government Area of the state.

This sparked protest as angry residents took to the streets, demanding the immediate sack of the Police Commissioner, Suleiman Balarabe, whom they accused of incompetency and high-handedness.

A statement sent to Igbere TV by the Secretary to the Enugu State Government, Prof. Simon Uchenna Ortuanya, said the autopsy will be carried out by the Enugu State University Teaching Hospital, Parklane.

According to Prof. Ortuanya, the medical exercise which will unravel the cause of death of Mrs Mba, is to assist the security agencies in their ongoing investigations into the incident.

Meanwhile, Igbere TV had reported that Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, recently, inspected the ongoing demolition of caves and clearing of bushes used as hideouts by criminals operating in the state.

This is even as the governor, about two weeks ago, sent the Enugu Anti-kidnapping Bill (2019) to the State Assembly, aimed at employing 1,700 forest guards to ensure maximum security in the state.
