Woman Allegedly Beaten to Death in Club After Being Accused of Picking Money


Last weekend, a heartbreaking incident occurred at Cosmila Hotel in Awka, Anambra State, where a young lady identified as Miss Chinyere Awuda lost her life. 


Hailing from Nnobi in Idemmili South Local Government Area of Anambra State, Chinyere was found dead in the hotel's swimming pool on Sunday morning, having been brutally beaten and dumped there after a lynching incident.

According to sources, trouble erupted at the club when a man known as Mr. Gabriel Chinemere, a popular clubber, and his friends began assaulting Chinyere. 


Allegedly, the altercation started when some fun seekers accused her of picking up money that was being sprayed on their friend during a birthday celebration.

Witnesses stated that Chinyere was accused of not only picking up money but also going for bundles of cash that a clubber had placed beside his seat to be sprayed later. 

Some regular clubbers at Cosmila Hotel shared their experiences, mentioning that some girls would dress up and come to the club with the intent of pocketing money that intoxicated men were spraying during celebrations.


Despite attempts by others at the club to intervene and rescue Chinyere, the violence against her persisted. 

Tragically, she was eventually dragged outside the club and thrown into the hotel's swimming pool, where her lifeless body was discovered.

The Anambra State Police confirmed the incident, and DSP Tochukwu Ikenga stated that the birthday celebrant and his friends are in police custody as investigations continue. 

He also emphasized that the management of Cosmila Hotel cooperated with the police in apprehending the suspects.


Mean while, authorities have recaptured an inmate who escaped from prison for nine days. See details here
