On Saturday, the Anambra State Police Command rescued an unidentified woman from a mob in the state's Aguleri community.
The woman was accused by the deceased's family of killing her husband with a "overdose" of sex.
The naked woman is seen crouching next her husband's lifeless body in a viral video while members of the community angrily insult her.
On Sunday, police confirmed the video's validity to our correspondent.
However, authorities stated they had detained a main suspect in connection with the inhumane treatment.
The state police spokesman, Tochukwu Ikenga, said, “The Anambra State Police operatives have today, 12/3/2022, rescued a female victim from an angry mob in Aguleri.
“The rescue was as a result of a report from a trending video where a lady was publicly molested and assaulted on an alleged incident of causing the death of her late husband.
“The Commissioner of Police, CP Echeng Echeng, while describing the act as barbaric, states that one suspect is already in custody and ordered an immediate study of the video with the aim to identify the suspects, arrest and bring them to book.
“Further information reveals that the deceased had already been buried before the video started trending. The victim was rescued and she is currently receiving medical care in the hospital. More development shall be communicated please.”
