Chinese National Admits Stabbing Late Girlfriend Out Of Provocation
The heartbreaking revelation of how Ummukulsum Sani, a Kano lady, was allegedly stabbed to death by her Chinese boyfriend, Geng Quangrong further emerged on Friday as police unveiled the conventional statement of the alleged murder.
The Kano state government has charged the Chinese national with culpable homicide for allegedly stabbing his ex-girlfriend to death at her Janbulo Quarters in Kano’s Kabuga neighbourhood.
At the resumption of the hearing of witnesses before Justice Sanusi Ado Ma’aji, of the state high court, Mr Quangrong confessed to having inflicted a deep cut on Ummukulsum’s shudder after he was provoked with a physical attack on him.
In a confessional statement deposited to the police, Quangrong who denied any calculated intention to kill Ummukulsum confessed that he was forced to respond in retaliation of physical assault from late Ummukulsum and her entire family who decended on him.
The statement read by Inspector Ijuptil Mbambu, a detective of the state Criminal Investigation Department (CID) before the court, Quangrong narrated how he spent a fortune on a marriage that never materialized.
In a statement, Quangrong disclosed how he deposited N80 million into Ummukulsum’s account to establish a business, build house and other necessities.
According to the Chinese national, Ummukulsum eloped with another man in March 2022 to Abuja after the promise of marriage crumbled. Ummukulsum had returned to Kano, luring Quangrong back into the relationship, two months later after her new relationship with the Abuja husband could not survive than two months.
” I was left in the rain for several hours to see Ummukulsum that night knocking on the door. The family refused to open the door. At a point, one of Ummukulsum’s siblings came to open the door but denied him entrance only to collect a dog he brought.
“I was later allowed to enter the room where Ummukulsum was sitting to discuss issues with her. The moment I enter the room, I was confronted with the entire family assaulting me and inflicted wounds and bruises on my neck and hands. It was then, I brought out my personal knife which I use for personal protection to stab Ummukulsum twice on her shoulder.
” Before that period, I have deposited N60 million to Ummukulsum’s GTBank account for investment, N8 million for her education at Sokoto, N4 million to buy house and another N18 million for business. But when I visited Ummukulsum I realized there was no business and no car” Quangrong confessional statement reads.
A young sister to late Ummukulsum, Asiya Sani who also testified before the court narrated how the Chinese national was said to have stabbed her sister to death.
“As my Sister entered a room making calls,the Chinese Man followed her locked the Sitting Room and the inner room, and at that time we went to inner room window peeping and I saw Mr Geng holding a knife and on top of my Sister who was on a bed stabbing her with it”.
Asiya added that ‘At the time with terrible fear, I quickly rush out and started calling for help alongside my siblings and our mother who was already outside the House looking for help. When Mr Geng realized the implication of what he did, he also came out of the room through the window and abandoned the lifeless body of my sister.
“At that point, our neighbours had rushed in and arrested him where they handed over him to the Police and myself and two others took my Sister to the hospital but looking at her She was not moving. It was at the hospital the doctor told us”. Asiya narrated.
Justice Ma’aji had adjourned the matter to the 19th, 20th and 21st of December, 2022 for the continuation of the hearing and defense.
