A man identified as Emmanuel Ovwarueso has been arrested by operatives of the Edo State Security Network for allegedly beheading his daughter for money ritual. 

The suspect was arrested in Uteh, Upper Mission, where he resides last Thursday at about midnight with the head of the deceased in a polythene bag.

He was said to have tied and gagged his wife and carried out the killing in her presence.

The suspect has since been handed over to the Nigeria Police, Edo State Command for further investigation.
