A party guest simply identified as Miss Chinyere Awuda has been beaten to death inside a popular hotel in Awka, Anambra State.
It was learnt that the lady met the ugly fate on Saturday when some friends were spraying money on a birthday celebrant while he was dancing during a birthday party at the hotel and the deceased who hails from Nnobi, in the Idemmili South Local Government Area of Anambra State, was beaten up after being accused of picking up some money that was being sprayed on the birthday celebrant.
The source said, “The girl was at the club when trouble broke out, and a man and his friends started beating her after she was accused of picking money they were spraying on their friend who was celebrating his birthday.
“They accused her of picking money which they were spraying on their friend while some said she did not only pick money from the floor but went for bundles of money, which one of them stacked by his seat side, waiting to spray on the celebrant.
“The girl was beaten when they caught her but despite efforts made by other people in the hotel to rescue the girl, they continued to beat and molest her.
“She was later dragged outside the club, and her lifeless body dumped into the hotel’s swimming pool.”
