Suspected ritualist, Ifeanyichukwu Dike, who allegedly killed eight years old girl, Victory Chikamso, and removed vital organs from her body, has escaped from police custody.

The ugly development has further impacted the image of the Nigeria Police negatively. It was gathered that some angry mothers, especially in Port Harcourt City are already warming up for mass protest, involving women and children, to express their anger over the suspect’s escape.

Also, some human rights groups in the state Monday, gave the police seven days to re-arrest the suspect.

The suspect was arrested last Friday by a vigilance group, as he tried to dump the mutilated body of the victim, stuffed in a sack, in a refuse dump site.

He was later handed over to policemen at Okporo Police Station.
