By Buba Gagigo
A member of Shakina Chinedu’s family, a British national who was discovered dead in a well in Kunkujang Mariama today, has disclosed that she was allegedly killed and disposed of in a well within her compound.
“We saw the body around exactly the place we saw her vehicle the last time (at her land). We went back there and found out that she was killed and dumped in a well in her compound in Kunkujang Mariama. At the moment we don’t know the people who carried out the act on her but we suspect it might be carried out by someone who knows her,” he told Kerr Fatou.
British citizen Shakina Chinedu, aged 60, has been residing in The Gambia since 2017. Her last communication with her family was on Tuesday, February 13th, 2024, around 10:30 PM.
