A suspected ritualist who disguises as a mad man in Ughelli town of Ughelli-North Local Government Area in Delta State has been burnt to death by mob.

The suspect drew attention to himself as he received a call from an expensive android phone initially believed to have been stolen and quickly ejected and swallowed the SIM card as he was being interrogated.

But rather than handing the suspect to the Police, the mob set him ablaze; to stop him from ever returning to torment the community after bribing his way out of the Police net.

In the meantime, the Delta State Police Command is yet to issued a statement over the incident.
