A mob in the northeast Nigerian city of Bauchi on Sunday beat a woman to death and burnt her body over suspicion she was a suicide bomber, police and witnesses said. “At about 7 am information at our disposal revealed that a yet to be identified lady who allegedly refused to allow herself to be screened at the entrance of Muda lawal Market Bauchi was attacked by irate mob,” Bauchi State police spokesman Haruna Mohammed said in a statement.
He said the mob "set her ablaze," adding that she died before police could rescue her.
