We were with the family of the late Paul at the hospital and mortuary yesterday. On Wednesday morning, Paul’s friend Prosper was arrested by the police and same Wednesday evening, Paul went to the police station to bail him and he was also detained.
According to Paul’s friend, he narrated that the police tortured Paul and put him on hand/legcuff. Paul collapsed at the police station and he was rushed to multiple hospitals by the police,
Paul tragically passed away at FMC Asaba on Saturday morning. The family contends that Paul’s death was a direct result of police torture.
