The lifeless body of a man suspected to be a commercial motorcyclist was tied to a tree in a forest near Kilankwa village in Kwali Area Council of the FCT.
A resident, Garba Bala, told Daily Trust that the corpse was found last Thursday morning by a farmer who was on his way to the farm.
Vigilantes were subsequently alerted and they visited the scene.
A commercial motorcyclist, simply identified as Usman, told the aforementioned publication that the victim was declared missing last Wednesday after he reportedly picked two passengers from Gwagwalada to Kilankwa village, adding that he was probably attacked by the hoodlums who boarded the motorcycle and took away the motorcycle.
He added that the corpse was evacuated and buried in Unguwar Abattoir in Gwagwalada.
The spokeswoman of the FCT Police Command, SP Adeh Josephine, was yet to confirm the incident.
