The source said at about 0530 hours on Friday January 11 this year, Dzigba’s daughter found her groaning and complaining of stomach and heart aches and the daughter quickly alerted her father but he ignored the deceased.
The source said Dzigba died half an hour later.
The source said Gavor and his junior wife quickly sneaked out of the house into hiding leaving behind the deceased’s daughter alone who informed her maternal relatives and the Police about what had happened.
The source said at about 1700 hours same day, the police picked up Gavor in a friend’s room and Afenu at her family house in the same community both of whom said they were scared of the deceased’s body.
The source said the two suspects were in Police custody as investigations were conducted.
