In another case of jungle justice two young have been set ablaze for allegedly stealing a brand new motorcycle from a commercial motorcyclist.

According to The Punch, the incident happened on Monday in Umuguma in the Owerri West local Government area of Imo.

An eyewitness said the deceased who were in their mid twenties had successfully snatched a brand new motorcycle from a commercial motorcyclist at the ever busy World Bank roundabout, near Owerri, the Imo capital when they were intercepted.

Before the arrival of security operatives, other commercial motorcyclists set them ablaze.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Andrew Enwerem, DSP, said his office was yet to be briefed about the incident.
