The Rivers State Police Command has launched an investigation into a suspected cult-related attack that led to the death of a student in Rumuolumeni, Port Harcourt.
According to the Command’s spokesperson, SP Grace Iringe-Koko, the incident occurred around Cecilia Road in the Rumuolumeni area. Police officers responded swiftly to the scene and rushed the victim to the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital (UPTH), where he was later confirmed dead.
Preliminary investigations indicate the attack may be linked to ongoing rival cult clashes in the area.
