A woman identified as Nneamaka Nwosu has been arrested by the police in Anambra State for allegedly setting a policewoman and her two children ablaze at Nnokwa, Idemili South Local Government Area of the State.

DAILY REPORT NIGERIA gathered that the suspect, who hails from Amawbia, became homeless after she got divorced from her husband.

She was said to have approached the policewoman who out of pity offered to accommodate her until she is able to secure an apartment.

It was further said that on that fateful day, the lady had an altercation with the policewoman, which led to a fight. The suspect hit the policewoman on the head with a pestle and she fell and became unconscious.

She immediately tied the policewoman and her two kids together with a rope inside their room and set them ablaze.

The suspect, when apprehended, claimed that it was a gas cylinder that exploded while the woman and her children were boiling hot water. But after much interrogation, she confessed to the crime and attributed it to the handiwork of the devil.
