Nigerian Student Beaten To Death For Allegedly Attempting To Rape A Lady Inside An Elevator

A yet to be identified Nigerian student in
Malaysia has reportedly been beaten to death
for attempting to rape a lady inside an elevator
in a service apartment on September 23rd.
Malaysia’s newspaper, Malaymail online,
reports that the Nigerian student was mobbed
by residents of the service apartment after the
victim raised an alarm.
The police was called in and the Nigerian
student was taken to the police station with
injuries on the right side of his head, and had
scratch marks on his legs and hand. He later
died at the police station.
“We received a call from the security manager
of the apartment who informed us of the
incident. When police arrived at 8.20 pm, the
suspect was surrounded by 20 to 30 people and
his hands were tied.
The victim put up a fight and screamed for help
as the lift door opened and several men who
were in the area caught the suspect.
The suspect was then taken to the police station
at 8.45 pm. He was fine and he even walked
into the station accompanied by policemen.
However, we found him unconscious when one
of the officers checked on him.
A medical officer examined the suspect and
pronounced him dead,” ACP Azmi Abu Kassim,
a Malaysian police chief said.
The police say a post mortem is being carried
out on the deceased. Meanwhile the Nigerian
Embassy in Malaysia has not confirmed or
reacted to the incident.
