The Enugu State Police Command have arraigned and obtained a remand order for a 30-year-old man identified as Tsehemba Joshua, for alleged armed robbery and murder of a 19-year-old scrap scavenger, Yusuf Ibrahim.
Joshua is accused of conspiring with two accomplices, currently at large, to rob and strangle the victim. He has been remanded to the Enugu Correctional Custodial Centre following his court appearance.

The suspect confessed to luring the victim under the pretense of selling a scrap motor vehicle propeller before robbing him of N100,000, strangling and burying his body in a shallow grave, on October 2, 2024.
After a thorough investigation of the case by the Campus Monitoring/Anti-Cultism Section of the State CID Enugu, the suspect was arraigned and subsequently remanded, pending further court proceedings.
