Ogun State Police Command has arrested two prostitutes, Kudirat Raji, also known as Angela, and Esther Basiru, for allegedly killing one of their customers identified as Adeyinka Olayinka.

The incident occurred at the KS Hotel, in the Ifo Local Government Area on May 30, 2017.

Abimbola Oyeyemi, the Ogun state Police Public Relations Officer, said the victim, who was supervising a construction work going on in his site at Ifo decided to pass the night in the hotel on the day.

According to preliminary investigation revealed that the victim contracted one of the prostitutes, Kudirat Raji, to pass the night with him on an agreed amount, but the deceased reneged on their agreement, which led to an argument between them, he said.

He further stated that while the argument was going on, Basiru, who was a friend to Kudirat, broke a bottle and stabbed the deceased in the armpit and injured his friend, who was present.

Oyeyemi said Olayinka bled to death.

Ahmed Iliyasu, the Commissioner of Police, had ordered the transfer of the case to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department.
