Sani, however said, “We have arrested another teenager, 16-year old (names withheld), who was a friend of the deceased.
“The suspect was said to have gone to the family house of the deceased and asked his mother to refund some money the deceased had allegedly stolen from his mother.
“The mother of the deceased was said to have refunded N 1,500, which was rejected by the mother of the suspect, alleging that the money was more than that.
“The suspect reportedly went to the family house of the deceased on the fateful day and told his mother to come and carry his remains.”
