HOMOSEXUAL MURDERS PARTNER IN HOTEL ROOM

A suspected gay, Mohammed Snu, has been
murdered by his partner, Mohammed Umar, inside
a room of a hotel in Garki, Abuja, Nigeria.






It was gathered that Snu died after he was
stabbed multiple times in the ribs with a screw
driver by Umar last Thursday.
The deceased, who was a regular guest at the
hotel, was said to have invited Umar for sex, but
their romance went sour when Snu refused to pay
his partner for the second round of sex.


A source in the hotel told PUNCH Metro that the
two men had sex twice, but Snu allegedly refused
to pay for the second round, which led to a scuffle.
The source said, "The man had just come back
from a mosque where he went for prayers with his
partner when we heard a loud noise from his room
and a voice saying 'ya kuri (please, don't be
angry)'. By the time we forced the door open, we
saw Umar standing naked and Snu lying dead on
the bed with stab injuries on his body. We
immediately called the police and Umar was
arrested."





PUNCH Metro learnt that the police came back
later and whisked away the hotel manager for
interrogation.




The incident was said to have generated an uproar
around the Garki neighbourhood, as residents
gathered in clusters to discuss the tragedy.
Our correspondent was told that policemen from
the FCT Command came in a white pick-up van
and took the corpse away.
They also drove away his white Mercedez salon
car with Abuja registration number, KUJ 883 AQ,
which was parked on the hotel premises.




The FCT Police Public Relations Officer, Peter
Okechukwu, who confirmed the incident, explained
that the deceased invited the suspect to massage
him in his hotel room, saying he had pains in his
ribs.




He said, "In the course of the massage, Snu asked
Umar to undress for sex, and from there, they
engaged in a scuffle leading to the stabbing of the
deceased by the suspect. It was the loud noise
from their room that attracted the hotel workers.
"When our men got to the hotel, we found the
deceased and the suspect naked. Investigations
have commenced and we will soon know what
actually transpired behind the closed door."
