Police in Freetown on Sunday, arrested an Indian man and
his Sierra Leonean accomplices over attempted ritual murder of young
man.
According to reports, the Sierra Leonean cellular phone
seller was invited by the Indian to bring 9 mobile phones to be
purchased.
When the retailer entered the Indian merchant's living
room, he was violently attacked with sharp knives as the Indian and his
Sierra Leonean accomplices tried to cut the victim's tongue to prevent
him from raising alarm.
Neighbours reportedly heard the screaming of the victim
and invaded the Indian's apartment where they found the victim wailing
in a pool of blood.
The victim could not speak as a large portion of his tongue had been damaged.
The police quickly intervened and arrested the Indian and his Sierra Leonean partners in crime.
The incident attracted a large crowd of people that
wanted instant mob justice but the police fired teargas canisters to
disperse them.
The Indian and his Sierra Leonean collaborators were later detained at the CID for further investigations.
