A suspected internet fraudster, Ifeanyi Osuji, from Agbaharansu community in Ehime Mbano Local Council of Imo State has allegedly raped a young girl to death.  
   
The victim (identity withheld), was also hailed from the same community.  
   
The Guardian learnt that the incident occurred after the suspect invited the victim over to his house on Saturday.
   
According to sources, the deceased was reportedly drugged by the suspect, who then sexually abused her. 
 
In the process, the victim started convulsing and later died early Sunday morning in Osuji’s house.
   
Immediately, the news got out, and some youths of the community went on a rampage, setting Osuji’s house ablaze and destroying his belongings. 
  
The suspect reportedly fled before the arrival of the irate youths. 
    
Spokesperson for Imo State Police Command, Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP), Michael Abattam, who confirmed the incident to The Guardian yesterday, said the Command had begun an investigation into the matter and intensified a manhunt for the fleeing suspect.
