Commissioner, Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs Samuel Aruwan in a statement said it was reported that Reverend Ali departed for Kafanchan on Saturday, and was not heard from until his corpse was found by a search party early on Sunday at Kibori community, near Asha-Awuce, where he was attacked and macheted to death.
