A young woman was rescued from a hotel in Abuja, where she was found bound by a man suspected of attempting a ritualistic act. The incident occurred at a popular hotel in Wuse Zone 5, after hotel staff responded to her screams and discovered her tied up with tape around her hands, legs, and neck. The man was caught trying to remove the tape when staff confronted him.
This event, along with a separate case involving the murder of a female student by a suspected ritualist at another hotel, has raised serious concerns about hotel safety measures and the adequacy of guest documentation. Reports suggest the police released the suspects, sparking fears of a potential cover-up.
