Four suspects arrested in connection with the gruesome killing of a University of Jos (UNIJOS) Political Science student, Ibrahim Mbaya, have admitted participating in the mob assault that led to his death, saying they beat him in a bid to recover a missing mobile phone allegedly stolen by the deceased.
The suspects made the confessions on Tuesday while being paraded by the Plateau State Police Command in Jos.
Mbaya, popularly known as “Ibee,” was allegedly tortured to death on Sunday at an off-campus apartment behind the City of David area along Ring Road in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State after he was accused of stealing an iPhone.
