A 27-year-old 500L Law student of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, identified as Augustine Ukwu has allegedly been killed by a police officer.
The deceased was allegedly murdered by an officer of the Nigerian police force in Nsukka, Enugu State, according to Vanguard News.
Augustine was said to have gone to a beer parlour at Odobido with his friend on Thursday, April 23, 2020, where he was arrested by a local security outfit, beaten and handed over to the officer in charge of Anti-cult in Nsukka, Ferdinand Nnamdi Ochi, who allegedly murdered him over a yet-to-be-identified issue.
The deceased father, Andy Samuel Ugwu, who is a retired policeman, said that all his efforts to unravel the circumstances which led to the death of his son and efforts to retrieve his body have been futile.
