A young man killed and his blood
drained near Malinga
Gabon. November 05, 2013. A
young man of 22 years old, Virgil Bikou Malessa, was murdered and his blood drained,
last week, in a forest near Malinga, the capital city of the department
(county) of Louetsi-Bibaka.
According
to a source close to the family, the murder was committed in the village named Mitsantsa
when the victim accompanied his older brother Anstide Sheba in a forest on the
edge of their village.
The
gendarmerie (military police) has arrested the number one suspect. The latter allegedly
used a shotgun to kill his junior brother, the source said, adding that he
then drained the blood out of his body.
The
battered body of young Bikou Malessa was found in the forest where his older
brother took him, claiming they were going hunting. "It is not that he thought
he little brother was a young animal. He deliberately opened fire on him",
argued the source.
The
alleged criminal, has we learned it, had initially asked his girlfriend to
accompany him into the bush. But the latter, intrigued by this unusual
request, appeared to be refractory to any movement in the forest.
Thus,
Anstide Sheba turned to his younger brother, who finally willingly agreed to
accompany his brother into the bush without any doubt about the terrible threat that «hunting»
represented to him. "Arriving in the forest, he pointed the gun at his
younger brother before shooting him at close range", said the same source.
On the site of the grisly discovery,
traces of ritual were found. Anything that suggests that the lamplighter has
not acted alone. A political leader of the country is believed to have
sponsored this ritual murder.
