This man policeman, Augustine Gbuchenge, Force No.400823, lived in the same compound with Amarachi’s family. But how come she ended up under the bed in his room? Here's Amarachi father's revelations:
“Last Thursday, I returned from work around 7.30pm and met my children and wife outside. There was power failure on that day so everywhere was dark. I asked after Amarachi but my wife said she was probably in our apartment sleeping.
“I was not satisfied with this explanation because my children don’t usually sleep early. When I went up, I did not see my daughter so we started asking around. Some little children in the compound then told me that Gbuchenge had called my daughter earlier to help him buy akara.
