After a federal high court Judge ruled for a plea of not guilty for suspected serial killer David west and ordered for him to undergo trials before the court while expressing readiness for a speedy hearing of the matter, the court ordered the suspect to be remanded in prison custody.
However a prison source revealed that Mr West was thoroughly beaten by other inmates in prison.
The source told Views Naija that the 'serial killer' fell sick after being manhandled by inmates.
This development forced prison officials to relocate David-West to a different cell but the occupants protested and expressed fear that they might also be killed same way the girls were killed.
A source said West has found it hard making friends in prison as inmates have developed the habit of avoiding making contacts with him. He stares reflectively as other prisoners engage in activities.
Hearing on his murder trial will resume on November 18.
