A 42-year-oldman identified as Sadue Cyphus has allegedly assaulted a colleague to death in Margibi county.
The incident occurred on Saturday, January 29, 2022 in Weala, district# 5, Margibi following a fight between the two.
Alias ‘Junior’, the victim, who was a resident of Clinton Farm near Weala, is said to have been knocked badly on his neck with a stick by Suspect Sadue.
Meanwhile, police in the county are currently investigating the perpetrator, a resident of Ka- Jinnie Town not far from Weala.
According to eyewitnesses, it all started when girlfriends of both the deceased and the accused got in a serious confrontation. Reason for the commotion was not disclosed.
But after their quarrel, Sadue’s girl reportedly told him that the late junior’s girlfriend referred to him (Sadue) as a Zogo, a characterization Liberians ascribe to a criminal. Hearing the information, Sadue got furious and flogged and naked Junior’s girlfriend.
When the deceased’s partner complained to him what Sadue did to her, the victim engaged his killer the next day while he had gone to defecate in the bush where he saw Sadue.
