Wasila was said to have bought a rat poison known in local parlance as Shinkafa Bera at a village market for N80.
The Police statement reads:
“The suspects conspired and adulterated the Zobo juice (locally made drink) with poisonous substances (Zakami) which was served to guests. “The husband took his meal and drink with his 14 friends.”
“After drinking the juice, two people-Nasiru Mohammed and Alhassan Alhassan of Yansoro Kademi- died on the spot. The third victim, a woman, Indo Ibrahim, died in the hospital. Other was treated and discharged.”
“The command swung into action and arrested the first two suspects who fled to Bauchi while the third one was arrested at Unguwa Uku in Kano metropolis.”
“The suspects have already been transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department for discreet investigation,” it said.
The suspect reportedly confessed to the crime, claiming that she did it because she was forced to marry a man she didn’t love.
Police spokesman Musa Magaji Majiya said the bodies had been taken to the hospital for autopsy.
