25 year old labourer, Macaulay Onitcha, has been
arrested by the police in Delta state for allegedly burying his new born
daughter, Edna Macaulay, alive. Macaulay took the young baby to the bushes, dug
a shallow grave, threw the baby in the grave and covered it with sand.
Fortunately for the little angel, someone had
witnessed him burying her alive and hurriedly exhumed her after fighting and
overpowering Macaulay at the scene. The person, Saturday Ekama, took the child
to the police station to report what had happened. Little Edna had a neck
injury after she was dug out and she is currently undergoing treatment at Saint
Francis Hospital in Asaba, while her dad is in police custody at the State
Criminal Investigation Department, SCID, Asaba.
Macaulay told police that he attempted to kill his
daughter because he was angry with his wife. He said he did it in anger and was
sorry!
You can see the shallow grave up there. See the photo
of the baby after she was dug out from the grave and a photo of her in the
hospital after the cut...
