A crowd beat to death a teenage girl accused of planning to be a suicide
bomber and then set her body ablaze Sunday, according to police and
witnesses at a northeastern Nigerian market.Accordng to AP,a second suspect, also a teenage girl, was arrested at Muda Lawal, the biggest market in Bauchi city.
In Bauchi, the two girls aroused suspicion by refusing to be searched when they arrived at the gate to the vegetable market, said yam vendor Mohd Adamu. People overpowered one girl and discovered she had two bottles strapped to her body, he said. They clubbed her to death, put a tire doused in fuel over her head and set it on fire, he said....
It seems doubtful the girl was actually a bomber as she did not detonate any explosives when she was attacked, said Police Deputy Superintendent Mohammad Haruna. He described her as the victim of "mob action carried out by an irate crowd."
