It was gathered that the slain widow had recently employed the fleeing security guard from her maternal home in Mbaise, Imo State to work for her.
Reports have it that on the day of the incident, the woman’s older security man had gone to church in the morning, but when he returned and attempted to enter the compound, the gate was locked from behind.
The older security guard was reported to have alerted neigbours who broke into the compound through the back door and discovered the widow in the pool of her blood. It was discovered she sustained an axe cut on the head.
A police source who confirmed the incident said investigations were on to unravel the circumstances surrounding the murder and also to track down the fleeing security guard as he may have clue to what happened.
