How Lady Conspired With A Man To Sell Her Sister’s ChildHow Lady Conspired With A Man To Sell Her Sister’s Child

A young lady who was on the run, Chinedu Chukwu, has been arrested by the police for abducting and selling her elder sister’s four-year-old daughter.

The girl, Chinecherem Irechukwu, a pupil of Unity Primary School in Inyi, a community in Oji River area of Enugu, was declared missing on December 15, 2016.

The police got involved after she did not return from school.

Spokesman, Enugu State Police Command, Mr. Ebere Amaraizu, who confirmed the development, said the case was referred to Gender/Anti-Human Trafficking Section of the state Criminal Intelligence and Investigations Department.

The section is headed by Superintendent of Police, Udoka Gloria, and supervised by a Deputy Commissioner of Police, Janet Agbede.

In the course of investigation, it was discovered that Chinedu, the younger sister of Chinecherem’s mother and her boyfriend, Chinonso Osunkwo, travelled down from Anambra State, where they reside, to abduct Chinecherem from her school.

It was further learnt that Chinedu and her boyfriend took the little girl to Ihe-Olokoro, a town in Umuahia, Abia State, where the little girl was sold to one Florence Nwokocha.

Florence reportedly paid N350,000 for the four-year old girl.

Following their arrest, Chinedu and her lover led police to Florence, who was equally arrested.

Chinecherem was subsequently recovered on January 16, 2017, one month after her abduction.

Narrating what transpired in the case, Amaraizu said, “On that fateful day, December 15, 2016, Chinedu and her boyfriend, Chinonso, conspired and came in from Anambra State and headed to the school where the little Chinecherem was tricked and whisked away to Umuahia, Abia State, precisely Ihe-Olokoro, where she was allegedly sold to one Florence Nwokocha at the rate of three hundred and fifty thousand naira.

“Police operatives, already armed with intelligence information, nabbed the said Florence Nwokocha, who also assisted the operatives to recover Chinecherem on 16/1/17 from a place where she was kept at Faulks Road, Aba, in Abia State, awaiting a would-be buyer with a fabulous amount of money to make huge profit.”

The police are on the trail of an unnamed person, who harboured Chinecherem in Aba.

Little Chinecherem has now been reunited with his parents.
