A 10-year-old boy said to have turned into a cat to witch-hunt a
family in Iwofe, Rumuolumeni in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of
Rivers State has been arrested by the police, reports have said.
According to a resident of the community, a cat jumped into a room
from nowhere while the occupants were wide awake. The cat was said to
have transformed to a boy as they were planning on how to chase out
what they thought was just a cat, he told Vanguard.
The occupants of the room had screamed to attract their neighbours who
came to their aid after the cat turned into a boy.
The source also said the boy begged his captors that night not to kill
him, naming his accomplice as a 48-year-old man said to have sponsored
his evil mission to the family.
The Iwofe Divisional Police Headquarters had since arrested the boy
and the 48-year-old man.
"Actually, two people have been arrested in connection to witchcraft
activity," a senior police officer, who spoke on condition of
anonymity told Vanguard.
The Rivers Police Command spokesperson, ASP Grace Koko, was later
contacted, but said she was yet to be briefed on the issue.
