Mr. Geng, a Chinese national, has been charged by the Kano State Police Command with the alleged murder of his ex-girlfriend Ummulkulsum Buhari at a Chief Magistrate Court in Normansland, Kano.
According to the police spokesman, the perpetrator was only charged with one count of culpable homicide in the death of the 23-year-old graduate of Kampala University.
It would be recalled that a Chinese national, simply identified as Mr Geng, was alleged to have slaughtered his ex-lover, Ummukulsum Buhari at Kuntau residence, Janbullo general area of Kano metropolis.
The tragic development happened at 7 pm on Friday when Geng reportedly found his way to the home of the late Ummukulsum.
Ummukulsum Buhari was said to be a graduate of Agriculture Science from Kampala University, Uganda, and after graduating, she was undergoing her National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) year at Sokoto.
According to a source, Mr Geng had a hot relationship with the young lady for two years before she settled for another man in the city.
However, Ummukulsum Buhari’s marriage never lasted and she was said to have returned to her family house to continue her normal life.
According to the account, Mr. Geng, who felt betrayed by Ummukulsum Buhari’s alleged scaling of the perimeter fence, sneaked into her room and slaughtered her in cold blood.
A report said a family member and well-wishers who had tried to save her life took her to the nearby health facility, where she reportedly gave up the ghost.
The suspect was rescued from a mob by the police and taken to their station.
