The policeman, attached to ‘B’ operation unit of Borno State Police Command, shot the wife with his official AK 47 rifle.
The couple were said to have been having misunderstanding over the behaviour of their son, said to be involved in theft, drug abuse and other crimes. It was gathered that whenever the father attempted to call the son to order, the mother would prevent him from taking action against him. A source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the disagreement between the couple worsened last week when they engaged in a fight which attracted the attention of their neighbours.
“The persistent misunderstanding between the policeman and his wife was not a strange happening in the barracks. We are all aware that their son has questionable character, but the mother always supported and shielded him from being punished by the father. The wife was killed when she tried to shield the son from being shot by the husband who was visibly angry. On realising that he has gunned down his wife, he instantly shot himself,” the source said.
The Borno State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Isa Azare, confirmed the incident.He said the corpses had been deposited at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital mortuary. Isa however declined to reveal the names of the couple, saying the case was being investigated by the Criminal Investigation Department of the command. (NAN)
