The minor’s body was discovered in a nearby swamp, packed in a sack and submerged underwater, by children who were catching mudfish. The children alerted the elders, and during questioning, Ocen, the suspect, was found hiding near the swamp, which led to his arrest.
The victims, members of the Oumolao clan, were reportedly attacked after being accused of engaging in an incestuous act. This accusation led to their brutal beating, which police have described as a clear violation of their human rights.
