Woman found dead in Maitama residence

A woman identified as Hajiya Fanna Mohd Abare has been found dead in her residence at the Federal Housing Authority (FHA), Maitama, Abuja.

Sources disclosed that the deceased, who had reportedly been unresponsive for about two days, was discovered in a decomposed state by her sister, Hajiya Aisha Mongo, on December 17 at 5:00 p.m.

It was gathered that the door to the room had been locked and was forced open before the body was found.

Police detectives were immediately dispatched to the scene.

Owing to the advanced state of decomposition and concerns over public health, the Abuja Environmental Health Department was contacted, and the body was evacuated and buried at the Gudu Cemetery.

Police sources said no foul play is suspected at this time, adding that investigations are ongoing to formally establish the cause of death.
