However, when they didn’t find him at home on May 20, 2020, they raped and murdered his wife.

Mrs Queen, who was known to have been a very religious woman in her neighbourhood, was discovered by neighbours who were worried that they had not seen her in a while.

A source said:

“When we could not see Queen, I came to check if she was fine because she lives alone, we met her naked, blood and foam was coming out of her mouth. There was semen all over her body.

“We had to call her husband who is staying in another place.”

The source said neighbours reported seeing strange men walking up and down the street just days before the tragic incident.
