Restaurant Shut Down In Anambra For Serving Human Flesh

A hotel restaurant in Anambra, Nigeria has been shut down by
authorities for serving human flesh. According to the BBC, suspicious
residents told police of rumors that the restaurant was cooking human
meat for customers. Police then raided the restaurant, where they
discovered fresh human heads that were still bleeding. The blood was
in the process of being drained into a plastic bag. Eaterhas more:

In addition to the illegal meat, authorities discovered automatic
weapons, grenades, and cell phones. Ten people were arrested in
conjunction with the crimes. One resident said, "Every time I went to
the market, I observed strange activities going on in the hotel.
People who were never cleanly dressed and who looked a bit strange
made their way in and out of the hotel, making me very suspicious of
their activities. I am not surprised at the shocking revelation."

A priest who ate at the restaurant was alarmed when presented with a
bill of 700 Naira, or roughly $3.50 (Tens of millions of people in
Nigeria subsist on less than $1 a day). "The attendant noticed my
reaction and told me it was the small piece of meat I had eaten that
made the bill scale that high," he said. "I did not know I had been
served with human meat, and that it was that expensive."

Last year, Australian chef Marcus Volke murdered and cooked his
girlfriend before killing himself. In Brazil, also last year, a man
and two women were arrested for murdering potential nanny candidates
and then cooking their flesh into empanadas.
