The lady’s private organs were reportedly harvested by her killers who abandoned her corpse in the hotel room.
However, the police in the state told our correspondent that three people have been arrested in connection with the incident.
But the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in Benue, Catherine Anene, debunked the allegation of missing organs, noting however that the body of the deceased was found without any marks on it.
Anene said, “There is a report of a lady’s death in a hotel but details will come from the medical doctors. Though we didn’t see marks of violence so the autopsy will reveal the cause of the death.
“The person that died was dressed but we didn’t see marks of violence meaning there were no injuries on the body. Three suspects have been arrested in connection with this case so they will give us details. We can’t say it is a case of murder because we didn’t see marks of violence.
“No explanation yet on how she died. But the case was confirmed to me that a woman was reported dead in a hotel.”
