Akure, Ondo state - Police operatives have arrested three suspects over the death of a sex worker at a brothel in the Cathedral area of Akure in Ondo state.

The tragic incident reportedly occurred in the early hours of Sunday, June 29, 2025.

As reported by The Punch, sources said the dispute began when a male customer demanded a refund of ₦15,000.

The male customer claimed he was not satisfied with the service after the sex worker complained of weakness during intimacy.

Eyewitnesses at the scene said the situation escalated into a heated verbal and physical confrontation despite the brothel manager’s intervention.

The male customer returned shortly after with a group of men, attempting to forcibly retrieve the money.

” He subsequently fled the premises, only to return shortly after with a group of miscreants believed to be his associates, with the intent of forcibly retrieving the said amount."

The sex worker’s health deteriorated during the incident, prompting her transfer to a nearby hospital in Lafe and later to the police hospital in Akure, where she was confirmed dead on arrival.

The brothel manager alerted the police, and a patrol team from ‘A’ Division arrived at the scene, arresting three suspects while others fled.

The state Police spokesperson, Ayanlade Olayinka, disclosed that efforts were ongoing to arrest two additional suspects still at large.

“The names of those involved are being withheld pending further investigation.”

Olayinka further stated that the sex worker’s body had been deposited at the State Specialist Hospital morgue for autopsy.

According to Olayinka, the Commissioner of Police, Adebowale Lawal, has ordered the transfer of the case to the State Criminal Investigation Department for a detailed probe.
