The source said, “An eyewitnesses said the suspect whose name was not given was seen by hunters during a hunting expedition who had no premonition that a human killer was in the bush.
“The hunters were in the bush with their two dogs which went ahead of them, only to come back to inform their owners with signs they interpreted to mean that there was an unusual discovery.
“When the hunters followed the dogs to a particular point in the bush, they were startled to see fresh dismembered human body including the legs, hands and head without the ears as well as clothes suspected to belong to victims spread on a tree.
“The hunters including one Mr Paul and Chimezie were said to have rushed back home to contact members of Ozubulu vigilance group who immediately followed them to the spot in the bush but could not see those human parts any more.
“After a long search, a man was seen in the bush who happened to be a security man working at a higher institution under construction.
“He was confronted by a combined team of the hunters and vigilantes who arrested him in connection with the discovery”.
According to the source, he was overpowered, and he led them to a river bank where he hid the human parts.
