The Imo State Police Command says it is on the trail of three brothers who allegedly killed their sibling over money realised from the burial of their mother.

The three men, Patrick Obieshieke, Chinonso Obieshieke and John Erieka were said to have brutally killed Remigius Obieshieke following a disagreement over the sharing of the cash realised from the burial of their 75-year-old mother, Angelina Obieshieke.

The incident happened on May 22, police spokesman Orlando Ikeokwu said, adding, “effort is ongoing to arrest the fleeing suspects, while investigation has commenced”.
