A woman, Amarachukwu Happiness Nzekwe, has been arrested for allegedly t0rturing her 13-year-old nephew with a heated laundry iron in Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State.
The suspect was arrested on Monday, August 19, 2024, after a video of the victim which went viral on social media was brought to the attention of the Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare Anambra State, Ify Obinabo on Sunday.
The media aide to the Commissioner, Chidinma Ikeanyionwu, who disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday, August 21, said the 38-year-old nurse, a native of Ezinifite in Aguata LGA, claimed she only disciplined her nephew after he stole from her.
According to the perpetrator, the weapon used in inflicting the injury on the minor was a well heated laundry iron, after which she locked him up at home without any proper medication attention.
Speaking immediately after rescuing the boy, Obinabo, who was visibly angry over the incident, assured that justice will be gotten for the little boy.
“It is important to note that the culprit is currently without her own child, which is why her little nephew was kept in her care. As at the time of this report, the suspect has been handed over to the police for further investigation and consequently charges the case to court,” the statement read.
