The Bayelsa State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of 21-year-old Tari Logos over the July 22, 2020 shooting to death of a businessman, Chief Abraham Bayefa, in Yenagoa, the state capital.
It was learnt that Bayefa was shot dead at a close range by suspected cultists for his intervention while they attempted to raid owners of some business centres and shops close to his house. It was further learnt that one of the suspects was immediately apprehended by a vigilance group and taken to the police while his accomplices escaped.It was also gathered that the suspect, currently in police custody, reportedly confessed to killing of the businessman.The detained suspect, however, claimed that it was his partner in crime that shot and killed the businessman.
The deceased’s family claimed that they didn’t have such amount of money to carry out an autopsy hence they contacted civil society groups including the Civil Liberties Organisation and the International Federation of Women Lawyers to assist them in ensuring that the killers of their father were brought to book.
