Cannibal restaurant 'with roasted human heads' shut down

Police in Nigeria arrested 11 people and closed a hotel restaurant after discovering two human heads wrapped in cellophane, the Independent reported.

It turned out that the hotel had been serving human flesh.

A tip-off led police to the macabre discovery in Anambra, Nigeria, with 11 people being arrested and AK-47 guns and other weapons being seized.

Human flesh was apparently being sold as an expensive treat at the restaurant, with authorities saying that roasted human head was even on the menu.

"I went to the hotel early this year. After eating, I was told that a lump of meat being sold was human. I was surprised," a pastor who had visited the eatery said.

"So I did not know it was human meat that I ate at such an expensive price.

"What is this country turning into? Can you imagine people selling human flesh as meat?" he added. "Seriously I’m beginning to fear people in this part of the world."

The tabloid reported that two army caps, 40 rounds of live ammunition and “so many cell phones” were also discovered by authorities.
