A teenage girl suspected of being a suicide bomber has been beaten to death and her body set on fire at a market in northeastern Nigeria.
Two girls refused to be searched after arriving at the gate to a vegetable market in Bauchi on Sunday, according to vendor Mohd Adamu.
A crowd overpowered one of the girls and discovered she had two bottles strapped to her body.
They then clubbed her to death before putting a tyre doused in fuel over her head and setting it alight.
A second suspect, also a teenager, was arrested at Muda Lawal, the biggest market in Bauchi.

Police Deputy Superintendent Mohammad Haruna said it was unlikely the girl was a suicide bomber as she did not detonate any explosives when she was attacked.
He described her as the victim of "mob action carried out by an irate crowd".
A spate of suicide bombings in Nigeria has been blamed on the Islamist Boko Haram group.
Girls as young as 10 have been used to carry explosives during attacks at busy markets and bus stations. Boko Haram has kidnapped hundreds of people during attacks in the northeast of the country.

Last week, President Goodluck Jonathan condemned the group for attacking soft targets and claimed the spate of bombings was a retaliation to the Nigerian military's success in regaining towns held by extremists for months.
In 2014, around 10,000 people died in Nigeria after Boko Haram attacks, according to the US Council on Foreign Relations. Another 1.5 million have been forced from their homes.
A US missionary was kidnapped by masked gunmen after an attack at a school in central Kogi state last week.
One of Mexico's most wanted fugitives - Knights Templar drug cartel leader Servando Gomez - has been captured, police have said.
The 49-year-old gang boss and former primary school teacher was detained by federal officers as he left a house in Morelia, Michoacan, following months of intelligence work, officials said.
Gomez was taken to Mexico City and frogmarched in front of TV cameras, as two masked federal police officers held him down by the neck and led him into a helicopter.
The kingpin had eluded authorities last year despite a massive manhunt in the mountains of Michoacan with help from a "rural defence" force comprised of former vigilantes, who had taken up arms against the Knights Templar.
With his arrest, the authorities have now taken down all the top leaders of the cult-like cartel, dealing a huge blow to a group that once dominated the agricultural and mining state through murder, kidnappings and extortion.

Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong said: "Today we have achieved the most important objective in the fight against organised crime: The detention of the most wanted criminal in all of Mexico."
The capture is a much-needed victory for President Enrique Pena Nieto amid public anger over his handling of violence in the neighbouring state of Guerrero, where 43 students were allegedly killed by a gang in league with local police.

President Nieto said the arrest "strengthens the rule of law and we continue marching toward a peaceful Mexico".
But Alejandro Hope, a former Mexican intelligence official, said Gomez's capture was symbolic and would "not majorly change the criminal scene".
He said Michoacan is struggling with the emergence of new armed groups and infighting among vigilantes.

Gomez became the Knights Templar's de facto boss after the group's founder, Nazario Moreno, was killed by marines in March 2014. Moreno had been wrongly declared dead by officials in 2010.
Unlike the more shadowy gangsters of Mexico's underworld, Gomez was a publicity seeker who appeared in online videos and television interviews.
He nurtured a Robin Hood image in his mountain hometown of Arteaga, where Gomez threw parties and gave out cash.

Some of his videos ensnared local politicians caught casually chatting with him around a table, including a former interim governor who was later arrested.
Authorities had a $2m reward for his capture, seeking him for alleged kidnappings, extortion, murder and drug trafficking.
At the height of its power, the cartel imported drug precursors from Asia to manufacture crystal meth before exporting the potent drug to the US.

Oblivious to the controversy taking place outside the high walls of this juvenile reform home, 30 children - a mix of substance abusers and criminal suspects, some charged with rape and murder - are busy learning and playing at a workshop.
They are taking part in a pilot project backed by the charity Society for Promotion of Youth and Masses (SPYM), which supports reforming juveniles who are in conflict with law.
In India a juvenile under the age of 18 can only be tried by the Juvenile Justice Board. No matter what crime, the punishment cannot exceed three years, with their time spent in a reform home.
But this is all set to change as the government is in the process of lowering the age to 16 years for juveniles who commit heinous crimes. Once passed by parliament, these juveniles will be tried as adults.
The Juvenile Justice Act came into the national spotlight after the brutal gang rape and murder of a 23-year-old woman in Delhi in December 2012.
Statistics show 95% of juveniles will reform, says charity SPYM
One of the accused was six months short of 18 and was given a maximum three years at a juvenile home.
Parents of the woman challenged the order and petitioned the Supreme Court of India, wanting him to be tried as an adult.
Video:May: Is India Dealing With Rape?
Speaking to Sky News, India's Minister for Women and Child Development Meneka Gandhi said: "The job of the government is to respond to the mood of the nation and the mood of the nation is that we are fed up with children committing heinous crimes and you can call that pressure.
"It is a response to a feeling that is all over the country. This act has been delayed by six months and I have had far more flak for delaying it than pushing it."
But charities and child right activists oppose the legislation.
Dr Rajesh Kumar, director of SPYM, said "Our conviction is that if you provide an opportunity for those between 16-18 the chances are that 95% will reform... If you are denying the opportunity to 95 % that is not good."
Saddam, 20, lived almost half of his life in crime. As one of the youngest of nine children, Saddam grew up in Seelampur - a vast slum in Delhi.
Video:June: Protest Against Rapes
His life of crime began when he was just eight years old in drugs and robbery. At 13 he murdered a man for money to fuel his habit.
Arrested and charged, he was sent to a juvenile home. In and out on bail he carried on his criminal activity as a gang leader.
At 16 he knifed a man to death while robbing him. After he was charged, he was sent to a correction home at SPYM.
Dr Kumar said: "He was a very difficult case but his turn around exemplifies the success of the reform process. He is totally reformed and works as a cook with us."
Saddam told Sky News: "If 16-year-olds are sent to adult jails they will not have the opportunity to reform. There they will get hardened even further and will feel they can do anything they wish. If I was sent there at that young age I would never have reformed.

According to the National Crimes Record Bureau, heinous crimes committed by those between the ages of 16 and 18 have increased over the years. They also account for almost two thirds of the total crimes committed by juveniles.
But child rights activists have challenged the interpretation of these numbers saying that juvenile crimes are just a fraction of the total crimes committed in the country.
Ms Gandhi said: "Children are really aware of what they can get away with. Many gangs employ criminals, choosing them deliberately at the age of 16. In fact there are written orders out in terrorist groups saying 'if you can, get a 16-year-old to do the work'.
"It's a matter of time for this legislation to pass as there is not much opposition. But the question is, is the country ready to cope with its outcome?"
William Shatner has said he feels "really awful" he will be unable to attend Sunday's funeral of fellow Star Trek actor Leonard Nimoy, who died on Friday aged 83.
The actor, who played Captain Kirk in the cult sci-fi series, said on Saturday he could not make the service because he already had plans to appear at a Red Cross ball in Florida.
"I feel really awful," the 83-year-old tweeted.

"Here I am doing charity work and one of my dearest friends is being buried."
"So maybe tomorrow we come together here and celebrate his life," he added.

Shatner led tributes to Nimoy a day earlier, saying he had loved his co-star "like a brother".
Nimoy was beloved for his portrayal of pointy-eared Mr Spock, the half-Vulcan, Starship Enterprise second-in-command to Shatner's Kirk.
President Barack Obama also paid warm tribute to the star, who passed away at his Los Angeles home after a battle with lung disease.
"Long before being nerdy was cool, there was Leonard Nimoy," said the President.
Another co-star, George Takei, who played Sulu, said: "We return you now to the stars, Leonard."
Last year, Nimoy revealed on Twitter he had been diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Thousands of protesters have been marching through the streets of Moscow to honour murdered Russian opposition leader Boris Nemtsov.
Organisers said more than 70,000 people joined the rally to mourn the former deputy prime minister, who was gunned down near the Kremlin on Friday.
Many of the demonstrators carried portraits of Putin critic Mr Nemtsov, as well as placards declaring "I am not afraid" and "He died for Russia's future".
Opposition leaders said the protest was aimed at stopping a "campaign of hate" directed at those who question President Vladimir Putin's rule.
"If we can stop the campaign of hate that's being directed at the opposition, then we have a chance to change Russia," said Gennady Gudkov, an opposition leader.

The 55-year-old was shot in the back several times just before midnight on Friday as he was walking home from a restaurant in the centre of the city.

The killing was the latest in a string of murders of opposition figures in Mr Putin's 15 years in power and recalls the shooting of anti-Kremlin reporter Anna Politkovskaya, who was killed in October 2006.
Speaking to Sky News, the former president of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili accused Mr Putin of running a "mafia state".
"It's a strange coincidence... that all of his main critics and everyone that crosses his way somehow finish up in this way," he said.
"That again resonates with the fact that he has really turned Russia into some kind of mafia state".
Mr Putin has condemned the death and blamed the latest killing on enemies trying to discredit the Kremlin.

Prime Minister David Cameron said the Russian people had been deprived of a champion of their rights and that Mr Nemtsov was greatly admired in Britain, not least by Margaret Thatcher.
"I am shocked and sickened by the callous murder of Boris Nemtsov as he walked in the heart Moscow," he said.
"This despicable act must be fully, rapidly and transparently investigated, and those responsible brought to justice."
Investigators say gunmen fired at least eight shots from a car as Mr Nemtsov walked with a woman named by Russian media as 23-year-old Ukrainian model Anna Duritskaya, who was unhurt.
Footage aired by Russian TVC channel from a distant camera showed the suspected killer running along the road and jumping into a waiting car which then sped off.

Yevgeny Chichvarkin, a Russian expatriate businessman based in London, told Sky's Dermot Murnaghan that Mr Nemtsov's killers "didn't feel any fear" of retaliation from Mr Putin.
Asked for his opinion about whether the Kremlin was involved in the death, he said: "(Their) knowledge is 100% because they control the whole area around the Kremlin and they control it on a very high professional level."

A self-proclaimed pastor accused of systematically assaulting two young girls at his religious fellowship in the US has been arrested – 11 months after he went on the run.
Victor Arden Barnard, who was one of America's most-wanted men, was detained by police in Brazil - following a raid on an idyllic apartment near a beach resort.
He faces 59 counts of sexual assault against the girls, who investigators believe were abused throughout their teenage years between 2000 and 2012.
They were among 10 young women who had moved away from their families to live at his camp in rural Minnesota - and both victims were apparently housed in isolation, enabling the abuse to take place.
Barnard had allegedly convinced their parents to make them relocate for religious reasons.
US investigators believe more girls - who were referred to as "maidens" - were abused by the 53-year-old, but police have been unable to convince other victims to come forward.
Cindi Currie, who had desperately tried to persuade one of her friends to leave the River Road Fellowship camp, said: "He has ruined lives - that man is devil incarnate.
"I'm just ready to cry. I'm so glad they found him. Not only will Victor Barnard go to jail, but every adult who know what was going on up there can start to pay, and maybe these girls can start to heal."
Barnard had legally entered Brazil in 2012, and had been living at the beach apartment for six months. He was charged in absentia by the US Marshals Service in April 2014, when a warrant for his arrest was issued.
Rand Paul's prospects of securing the Republican presidential nomination have been given a massive boost - after he won the straw poll at the Conservative Political Action Conference for the third year running.
The Kentucky senator picked up 25.7% of the vote, even though he hasn't announced whether he plans to run in 2016. Scott Walker, the governor of Wisconsin, came second with 21%.
But it was a challenging conference for Jeb Bush, who is widely tipped as the frontrunner for the Republican nomination. He only could only muster fifth place, with 8.3% of attendees supporting him.
The former governor of Florida - whose brother is two-term president George W Bush - was booed as the result of the straw poll was announced, and heckled as he gave a speech on Friday. Despite this, he has millions of dollars in the war chest for a potential campaign.
Following his victory, Mr Paul said in a statement: "The constitutional conservatives of our party have spoken in a loud and clear voice today. I plan on doing my part and I hope you will join me as I continue to make the GOP a bigger, better and bolder party."
According to pollsters, just over 3,000 attendees at the conference in suburban Washington cast a ballot. Half of those who voted were 18 to 25 years old, and claimed economic issues - including taxes and jobs - mattered most to them in the upcoming election.
The results of the straw poll are non-binding, and have a mixed history in predicting who will go on to be the next presidential nominee for the Republicans.
Mitt Romney won the vote in 2012, and went on to be nominated - but in 2008, John McCain was selected to stand against Barack Obama even though he was not the favourite in the straw poll.
In preparation for his Asian tour, Prince William is bound to have sat down with British diplomats for a series of briefings; a chance for him to get up-to-speed on Britain's relations with Japan and China.
The briefing on Japan wouldn't have taken long; London and Tokyo are close allies. Politically, culturally, the relationship is good.
"Fly the flag and enjoy the trip," he'd have been told.
But what about his China briefing? My sense is that would have taken a little longer.
China is undoubtedly a test of William's diplomatic dexterity with numerous "issues" for him to consider - some to navigate around, others to tackle head on.
Video:Oct 2014: The Umbrellas Explained
So what would William's diplomatic take-away notes for China have looked like? Here's my guess:
:: Subjects to avoid at all costs?
- Hong Kong: Britain once ran Hong Kong, but the Chinese are keen on reminding everyone that they are in charge now.
The calls for genuine democracy (rather than electing a leader from candidates chosen by Beijing) resulted in huge protests last year. Beijing accused the UK of quietly backing the protests and "meddling in Chinese affairs".
It's all rather delicate - best not to mention it. If it rains in Beijing, don't carry a yellow umbrella; any other colour, but not yellow.
- The Dalai Lama: Just don't go there. David Cameron met the excelled leader of Tibet (once independent, now Chinese) in 2012.
For the following 18 months, the UK was politically frozen out of China. While it didn't affect trade, it's best not to be in China's naughty corner for too long.
Video:Prince Visits Japan Tsunami Town
:: Subjects that can be mentioned delicately?
- Human Rights: Without using that particular phrase, some informal discussion of a "global desire for equal freedoms and rights" would be fine.
China has an undoubtedly questionable human rights record.
However, the Communist Government sees "human rights" through a different prism; they talk of "collective human rights" - frequently taking credit for lifting millions of people out of poverty over the past few decades: a collective improvement in Chinese human rights, they say.
:: Subjects to wax lyrical about?
- Downton Abbey: The Chinese can't get enough of it. Talk at length about it! Cultural exports are a key growth area for Britain, with China the key market. (Perhaps mention quietly that Britain would rather the Chinese bought the programme rather than illegally downloading it or pirating DVD copies).
- Sherlock Holmes (and Benedict Cumberbatch): Again - they can't get enough of it, or him.

The Londoner identified as "Jihadi John" told a journalist in 2010 that harassment by British security services had made him fear he was a "dead man walking", it has been revealed.
Years before his reign of terror in Islamic State videos began, Mohammed Emwazi emailed a reporter to claim that several run-ins with intelligence officials had left him contemplating suicide.
The 26-year-old described coming face-to-face with someone who he suspected was a British spy - months after he graduated from the University of Westminster.
Emwazi was attempting to sell a laptop when he became suspicious of the mystery buyer, according to messages he sent to a Mail on Sunday reporter.
He wrote: "Sometimes I feel like a dead man walking, not fearing they (MI5) may kill me.
Video:Jihadi John Classmate Interview
"Rather, fearing that one day, I'll take as many pills as I can so that I will sleep for ever! I just want to get away from these people!"
The correspondence was released on Saturday night - hours after a tranche of messages between Emwazi and a campaign group emerged.
He began emailing the CAGE organisation after he was questioned by counter-terrorism officers while attempting to fly from Heathrow to his native Kuwait in 2010 - and claimed the security services were "stopping him from living his new life" abroad, where he had secured a job and was getting married.
In one message, the graduate wrote: "I feel like a prisoner, only not in a cage, (but) in London. A person imprisoned and controlled by security service men."
Video:PM Defends Security Services
Emwazi appears vulnerable in several of his emails, and asks for advice in complaining to his MP and the Independent Police Complaints Commission about the treatment he had received.
After being told by British officials that he would not be allowed to move to Kuwait, he told CAGE: "I'm not going to give up!! I'm going to wait for my Dad to come back so that we can visit the Kuwaiti embassy in London… going to the embassy myself won't be successful."
The last email that Emwazi sent to CAGE in January 2012 showed no indication of the violent acts of terror he would soon be involved in - and had the subject title: "Smile, it's me again?! Sorry for the headaches I cause…"
When Emwazi was first unmasked as "Jihadi John" earlier this week, representatives from CAGE described him as "extremely kind and gentle" and "the most humble young person we ever knew".
Video:'Jihadi John' Identified
He is believed to be involved in the cold-blooded murders of at least five Western aid workers and journalists who were taken hostage by Islamic State in Syria. They include two Britons: Alan Henning and David Haines.
The University of Westminster has been accused of allowing a toxic environment of radical Islam within the institution, a charge it vehemently denies. Emwazi earned a computer programming degree at one of its campuses.
Meanwhile, the high school where the militant studied, Quintin Kynaston Academy, is being investigated by the Department for Education - after a Sunday Telegraph report claimed that two other pupils from the north London school had been killed fighting for al Qaeda and al Shabaab.
A Government spokeswoman added: "The allegations about Quintin Kynaston may be historic - and it is clearly a completely different school today - but I'm sure we will look back at evidence from the time as part of this review to see if there are any lessons we can learn for the future."
Prince William has arrived in Beijing for the first visit to China of a senior British royal in three decades.
The Duke of Cambridge, travelling without his heavily pregnant wife, will spend three days in the country visiting Beijing, Shanghai and an elephant sanctuary in Yunnan Province.
The trip, which follows a four-day tour of Japan, is seen as the first significant test of the Prince's diplomatic skills. Trade will be one focus but he is also expected to tackle China's role in ending the illegal wildlife trade.
He will represent the Queen as well as the Government for some engagements, but for others he will be an ambassador for British business at a time when the UK is actively seeking to expand economic and cultural opportunities with China.
In Japan, The Duke of Cambridge spent the last day of his tour of Japan hearing more harrowing stories from the survivors of the 2011 Japanese tsunami.

The Duke toured the coastal town of Ishinomaki which was hit by an estimated 28 foot wave. 3,275 people died, with 430 people still unaccounted for. Approximately 22,000 residents lost their homes and 53,000 homes were damaged.
He also met Hiroyuki Takeuchi, a newspaper editor who produced handwritten newsletters when the disaster struck.
During his tour of China, the Prince will meet President Xi Jinping and tour the Beijing's iconic Forbidden City before flying to Shanghai.

The Prince will meet senior figures in Chinese and British business including China's two richest men, Alibaba chairman Jack Ma and Wanda chairman Wang Jianlin - both of whom have interests in Britain.
Business ties between the UK and China are strong despite a turbulent political relationship.
Britain is already China's most popular European destination for outbound investment.
In 2014, Chinese investment into Britain was worth £7.7bn. British investment into China was more at £11bn, according to the China British Business Council.
The Chinese government has predicted that its investment globally will grow from £64bn in 2014 to £324bn within five years. Cultural exchanges and high profile visits like Prince William's are designed to ensure as much of that investment as possible comes to the UK.
