It was further gathered that inside the den were a decomposing body of a male victim, clothes, shoes, wigs, matchetes, and bags. A resident, who pleaded anonymity, told our correspondent that two victims in the custody of the ritualists’ escaped from the building and an attempt by them (ritualists) to recapture them led to the discovery of the den.
