A police source said in confidence that the night guards might have seen those who dumped the body. The deceased is said to be about 24 years old.
The residents are afraid that the police would arrest more suspects among them.
The state Criminal Investigation Department (CID) is handling the matter.
But the acting police spokesman, Daniel Oboyi, could not confirm the story last night.
The police officer said he was yet to be briefed because he just returned from an official trip.
