The gruesome murder of four young men in Bendeghe Ekeim, Etung Local Government Area, Cross River Central, has been linked to the renewed secret cult clash between to rival cult groups in the area.
Our reporter in nearby Ikom gathered that a disagreement between some of the young men, suspected to be members of the Vikings and KK, led to the first shooting to death of one of the youths before reprisal attacks consumed another three.
“This thing started yesterday (Sunday) and played out into the wee hours of today. You can see the corpses; that one has a cut to the lower back which exposed his kidney. The other one has a bullet hole in the chest which means he was shot on the chest and killed. Look at the other one lying on the stretcher, see the matchet cuts; these kids are heartless unto themselves”, a source in the area told www.calitown.com.
While the Police has been drafted to the area, the deceased youths have been deposited in the morgue by the Police.
