Two decomposing female bodies have been recovered from the office of a medical doctor in Kaiama LGA of Kwara State.
The suspect, Dr Adio Adeyemi Adebowale, was the Chief Medical Director (CMD) of Kaiama General Hospital and is presently being held in Edo State over allegations of injecting his clients with lethal substances, thereby killing them in the process.
Speaking on the discovery on Sunday, spokesman of the Kwara Police Command, Ajayi Okasanmi, said it was prompted by a petition regarding the case of a missing woman (Nofisat Halidu) in Kaiama and other unresolved killings.
“We commenced investigation on September 30, 2022, working on a lead provided by the arrest and confession of the suspect in Edo State over the murder of his girlfriend, one Ifeoluwa, who was declared missing in the Tanke area of Ilorin recently.
“At Kaiama, the suspect’s office was forced open where a suspicious sight of freshly cemented floor tiles was discovered.
“The tiles were broken and a gory sight welcomed the detectives where a decomposing carcass of an unidentified female was lying inside a shallow grave.
“A further search of the office led to the opening of a trashcan in which another body of a woman, later identified as the missing Nofisat Halidu by the husband and other members of the community who were present at the scene at the time of the search,” Okasanmi said.
He added that other items recovered in the doctor’s office included two handsets in the handbag of one of the women in the doctor’s drawer; two other female handbags, a female wig, a veil and a pair of female pants.
The police spokesman said the Kwara CP, Paul Odama, had contacted the Edo State Police Command requesting for the suspect to answer questions regarding the discoveries in his office
