A Nigerian restaurant has reportedly been shut
down for cooking human flesh and serving it to customers. The police were
tipped off by locals who suspected something horrific was taking place inside
the kitchen.
They raided the hotel restaurant to discover
human heads which were still dripping with blood in plastic bags.
A local priest who ate at the restaurant - in
the south-eastern province of Anambra - was alarmed at the price of meals
there, let alone where the meat came from, BBC Swahili reported.
He was presented with a bill of 700 Naira -
around £2.20 - when the daily wage for tens of millions of Nigerians is
approximately 60p.
The priest said: 'The attendant noticed my
reaction and told me it was the small piece of meat I had eaten that made the
bill scale that high.
'I did not know I had been served with human
meat, and that it was that expensive.'
The police also found a terrifying arsenal of
weapons which included grenades when they raided the restaurant. Ten people
were arrested in connection to the crimes.
One resident said: 'I am not surprised at the
shocking revelation... Every time I went to the market, I observed strange
activities going on in the hotel.
'People who were never cleanly dressed and who
looked a bit strange made their way in and out of the hotel, making me very
suspicious of their activities.'
