An official of the cemetery,  Mal. Abdullahi Idris Koko, said Mamu was caught while digging the grave in order to steal the corpse which was buried recently.

“The suspect came into the cemetery in the evening just like other visitors  coming to offer prayers for their loved ones, but, unfortunately, we saw him digging a new grave trying to steal the corpse inside and  we quickly rushed to the place and apprehended him,” Koko said.

He described the action as unfortunate and unusual, adding that attendants at the cemetery would intensify efforts at keeping the cemetery safe and tidy.

The man was  handed  over to the Koko Divisional Police office for prosecution.
