Kasarachi said, “We demand justice. We are not satisfied with the story they are telling us. As a family, we suspect foul play. They never called us; we never got to know till after several hours. They deposited his corpse without involving any member of the family or the police. The CCTV footage they brought is questionable. We saw my brother’s corpse three days after his death. We demand an autopsy because his body doesn’t look like he was electrocuted.
“His body is very fresh. The way they were behaving when we arrived at the hotel didn’t show they cared or somebody died. All we ask is justice. We reported the incident at the DSS head office in Owerri, but the matter has now been transferred to the police command headquarters in Owerri. The world should help our family get justice.”
A spokesperson for the police in the state, Mika Abattam, said the command was aware of the matter, adding that investigation was ongoing.All rights reserved.
