Officers Recover Victim’s Remains in Suspects’ Residence
The Adamawa State Police Command has made a major breakthrough in its fight against violent crime with the arrest of two suspects linked to the gruesome murder of a 10-year-old boy in Jada Local Government Area.
According to a statement released on Sunday by Police Public Relations Officer CSP Suleiman Nguroje, the suspects—27-year-old Ibrahim Abdul Malik and 18-year-old Aliyu Abdul Malik, both residents of Anguwan Sarkin Yamma, Jada—were taken into custody for the killing and beheading of a young Almajiri, Abdalla Lawali, from Anguwar Dubai, Jada.
Lawali was reported missing on March 7, 2025, prompting an intense search effort. Acting on intelligence, officers raided the suspects’ residence, where they discovered the victim’s decomposed body inside a sack. Further searches led to the shocking discovery of the severed head, which had been buried in a shallow grave within the house.

Reassuring the public of justice, CP Morris urged parents and community members to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to the authorities.
