Men of the Abia State Police Command have arrested one Mrs. Zazi David for allegedly dousing her 10-year-old househelp with hot water mixed with ground pepper because she broke a plate.
According to the command’s spokesperson, Geoffrey Ogbonna, Mrs. Zazi also allegedly forced the girl, identified as Ifunanya, to drink the mixture.
