The body of a missing four-year-old boy, Eleazar Ishiya, was found with his genitals, tongue and eyes removed in a manhole next to Mr Biggs in the Jabi area of Abuja.
The boy’s body was found three days after he was declared missing on Friday March 3 at the Jabi Daki Biyu football stadium.
According to Daily Trust, a witness Joel Joseph said, “When we saw her body inside the manhole, her grandmother tried to jump in but I grabbed her and pushed her away.
I jumped into the pit where I found the body already decomposed.
His tongue, anus, and genitals were cut out while his eyes were also gouged out.
“Obviously, his killers are ritualists, and they could have thrown him into the pit at night.”
The victim, described as “smart” by her mother, Precious Ishaya, was a nursery student and the only child in the family.
The mother said: “On that fateful Friday, Eleazar was about to take a bath.
He took an ten naira note to buy candy at a neighborhood store and disappeared.
She said: “I am not disturbed by his death, but by how horribly he was tortured to death. I submit my case to God.
I do not know the perpetrators because I am not a being with spiritual eyes.
The boy’s blood can penetrate his heartless killer because he is innocent. They should think they are dead.
“I couldn’t muster up the courage to see his disfigured body; only then I was able to see his body in the pictures.”
The FCT Police Force is yet to comment on the incident at the time of filing this report.
