Man arrested for stabbing sex worker in Delta
Man arrested for stabbing sex worker in Delta
The Delta State Police Command has arrested a man in his twenties for reportedly stabbing a female following a sex session in Agbor, Ika South Local Government Area, Delta State.
According to reports, the guy simply named Mr. Daniel stabbed the sex worker in a brothel, Apple Inn, on Friday night along the ever-busy Benin/Asaba Motorway, following an incident over his failure to pay the agreed-upon cost.
According to sources, the suspect, a regular customer at the brothel, justified his refusal to pay the agreed-upon amount by claiming that the sex worker denied him ejaculation during the third round of the romp.
“While the sex worker was insisting that he must pay the complete amount as agreed, stressing that he was hard on her, the suspect picked a knife, possibly from the sex worker’s kitchen, stabbed her, and dragged the knife downward,” a source said.

“The man was arrested by police officers after a distress call by some residents.”
According to the sources, the victim, whose name was unknown at the time of filing this story, was in severe condition when she was transported to the hospital for medical assistance.
A senior police officer in the Agbor Division of the police confirmed the arrest, stating that a team of officers from the division was deployed to the area in response to a distress call.
He revealed that when they arrived, the victim was found in a pool of blood, and the suspect was about to be killed by an irate mob.
He said, “I cannot confirm it now. I have called the DPO in Agbor; he promised to get back to me, but he has not.”
