The Plateau State Police Command on Thursday confirmed the killing of a 300-level student of the University of Jos (UNIJOS), Jennifer Antony.
She was killed by a suspected ritualist in a hotel in Jos, the Plateau State capital.
Spokesman of the Police Command, Ubah Gabriel Ogaba, an Assistant Superintendent of Police, said Miss Anthony was declared missing on December 30, 2021.
Her corpse was discovered on January 1.
It was learnt that the deceased was a student of Special Education and Rehabilitation Sciences.
The suspected ritualist allegedly drugged the victim before removing her eyes.
Ogaba said the police commissioner has met with hotels operators in the state and introduced new techniques of identifying crime to them.
“We are aware of the incident involving the student and investigation has since commenced to identify and arrest the perpetrators,” he said.
