“She was arrested when the mother got reliable information about the baby and immediately informed the police.
“The residents of the community also noticed that the suspect, who was never pregnant, suddenly started nursing a baby that she could not breastfeed. They informed the mother who later reported the case to the police in Ewekoro on August 7, 2015.
“In the course of police investigation, it was revealed that the suspect, a mother of 7, had issues with her initial marriage and got married to another rich man, who she wanted to have a baby for.”
