Earlier today, we brought you the story of a 400 level Micro-Biology student of  the University of Osun, Timilehin
Shonibare, whose decomposed body was found near a cleric’s place. More details have emerged and three suspects have been arrested. 

The Osun Police Command on Tuesday paraded three persons
arrested in Osogbo for allegedly beheading a 400 level student of the
University of Osun.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr Olufimihan
Adeoye, said the suspects  carried out the crime on June 26  at about
7:30pm  at Oke-Bale area of Osogbo.
He said the suspects conspired and killed one Timilehin
Shonibare, a 400 level Micro-Biology student of  the University of Osun
by hitting him on the head with a mortar- pestle. 
Adeoye  said  the victim’s  head, two wrists and palms were cut off  while his  remains were dumped in the bush.
He said friends of the victim reported him missing on  June
27 at 7:45 pm while the information obtained from them led to the
arrest of a 19-year-old  apprentice herbalist as well as his two
suspected accomplices aged  24 and 18, while one was at large.
The police boss said the head, wrists and palms of the dead
student, which were roasted in a black clay pot, were recovered from the apprentice herbalist and his confessional statement led to the
arrest of the others.
He also  said the remains of the victim  had been recovered
and deposited at the mortuary for autopsy while the suspects would be
prosecuted.
Adeoye advised  the public to be security conscious, noting
that the victim was a friend of the apprentice herbalist who was the
prime suspect and was lured to the scene of the crime.
He also said the Inspector General of Police had been
informed about the incident while his condolences had been extended to
the victim’s family. Vanguard reports.
