Strange Man beaten for "Stealing" A Man's Manhood in Abuja

A mob subjected a man suspected to have “stolen” another man’s manhood to thorough beating at Madalla market in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja last Thursday.

He was beaten to stupor by the mob before he was rescued by members of the market's vigilante group.

The incidences of “disappearing manhood,” attributed to certain magical powers, surface from time to time when strangers brush or shake hands with a person.

A witness, Shehu Yakubu, said the incident happened about 2:14p.m., and that the suspect confessed and later returned the stolen manhood.

He said the strange man, who came from Suleja area, alighted from an unmarked vehicle and pretended to be buying fairly used clothes and in the process brushed a passer-by.

“The man pretended as if he had fallen down and in the process brushed the victim with his shoulder. The young man raised an alarm about the disappearance of his manhood few minutes later,” Yakubu said.

He said some people chased the suspect and stopped him from leaving the market.

The suspect denied stealing the manhood and the mob that had already gathered descended on him beating him into a stupor, until members of the vigilante group rescued him, the witness said, adding that the man later confessed and did another routine and the victim’s manhood was “restored.”

Members of the vigilante group later conveyed the suspect and the victim to the police station.

The case is difficult to prove as the victim’s manhood was intact when they got to police station. Lol!
