A middle-aged man has survived lynching for allegedly attempted to run away with a hand bag of a female sex worker in Port Harcourt.
The incident happened on Sunday night at Diobu, Port Harcourt City Local Government Area of Rivers State.
The suspect, names withheld, was saved from the mob at Ojoto Street in Mile 3 Diobu, whereas he had met with the female sex worker in a brothel on Azikiwe Street, Mile 2, Diobu.
It was gathered that the suspected bag snatcher was hosted by a commercial sex worker at the undisclosed brothel in Azikiwe and that the customer had escaped to Ojoto with the lady’s hand bag before he was apprehended by angry mob.
The sex worker, whose identity was also not mentioned, told the mob who apprehended the young man that the suspect snatched her bag where she puts her money and ran out of her room shortly after patronizing her.
She disclosed that she gave the suspect a hot chase to recover her bag from him when the man jumped into a drainage, but that her screaming attracted some mob who come on the young man heavily.
Another source present at the scene, who gave his name simply as Ibe, said the youths with harmful weapons had dragged the young man out from the drainage where he had hid and pounced on him, if not for the intervention of some landlords in the area who intervened.
However, when asked why he picked the lady’s bag, the suspect claimed that he decided to snatch the bag containing the lady’s money because she (sex-worker) did not allow him to ejaculate after paying her for the sex.
