Court Remands Man for Allegedly Poisoning Woman to Death in Kebbi

In a significant legal development in Kebbi State, Nigeria, Bello Musa, also known as Katuka Dingyadi, has been remanded by a Chief Magistrate’s Court for his alleged involvement in the poisoning death of Shamsiyya Usman, aged 31. The tragic incident occurred at Shagalinku Hotel in Birnin Kebbi on June 26, prompting immediate legal action.

Musa faces three serious charges: culpable homicide, providing false information, and engaging in fraudulent activities. According to Inspector Muntari Mati, who is prosecuting the case, Musa poisoned Usman’s drinks—including Maltina, 5 Alive, and Swan Water—leading to her untimely death. Following the alleged crime, Musa reportedly fled the scene, leaving behind Usman’s deceased body. He was apprehended on July 2 at Sweet Hotel in Katsina State, where he attempted to conceal his identity using a false name and was found in possession of 18 ATM cards allegedly linked to fraudulent activities.

The charges against Musa are in violation of sections 193 (culpable homicide), 142 (false information), and 140 (fraudulent activities) of the Kebbi State Penal Code Law. The Chief Magistrate, Usman Umar-Bunza, presiding over the case, has ordered Musa’s remand in custody pending further legal proceedings. The decision underscores the seriousness of the allegations and the need for due process.
