The Benue State Police Command arrested a woman identified as Sughshater Ushahemba, for the murder of her 11-month-old baby at Abeda-Mbadyul in Logo Local Government Area of the state.

The Information Officer of Logo LGA, Paul Pevikyaa, said the woman had earlier claimed that her baby took ill around 12:31am and died after two hours.

She later confessed to killing her baby because she was abandoned by the man who impregnated her.
