The acting Commissioner of Police (CP) in Cross River, Mr. Hafiz Inuwa, confirmed the occurence of the incidence on January 27, 2017 at Adijinkpor village in Ikom Local Government Area of the state.
He also described the deceased to be a mother of two.
The CP said, “The incident happened on Jan. 27, 2017, following a report at Ikom Divisional Police headquarters from one Cletus Etta of Adijinkpor village that his tenant had killed someone.
“Upon receiving this information, my men swung into action and arrested the suspect.
“The suspect confessed to have killed the woman before having carnal knowledge of her. “Investigation is ongoing after which the suspect will be charged to court for murder."
Mr. Inuwa also admonished the members of the public to always ensure they call on the police with useful information that would encourage prompt response incase of emergencies.
According to Vanguard report, Ushie who is a cocoa farmer, said the deceased never gave him the opportunity to have sex with her while alive.
He confessed that he invited his late girlfriend to his house and killed her with a knife before having sex with the corpse. Ushie, who said he regretted his action, blamed the incident on the devil.
“It is the work of the devil. I do not know why the devil used me. I am the one that killed her. I killed her with a knife.
“She was my girlfriend and I knew her for just two months before this incident happened. I had to sleep with her corpse after killing her.
“It was strange sleeping with a corpse. I never had sex with her when she was alive because she never gave me that opportunity.
“I was always giving her money but she didn’t allow us to have sex with her,’’ Ushie confessed.
