Breaking: Two policemen charged to court for killing NSCDC Officer


In keeping with the assurances by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, to ensure transparent, accountable, comprehensive and speedy investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of the Ogar Jumbo, an Assistant Superintendent of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, the Police on Wednesday arraigned in Court the two Traffic Wardens — TW GII Idoko Sunday and TW GII Katdel Dabit — for complicity in the unfortunate death of the NSCDC Officer.
The arraignment of the erstwhile Traffic Wardens is sequel to the outcome of investigation into the case of alleged discreditable conduct and unlawful exercise of authority reported against them on March 20, 2019.
The former Traffic Wardens had earlier been subjected to the internal disciplinary procedures of the Force – tried in an Orderly Room and dismissed before the arraignment.
Police investigations positively indicted them for assault and excessive use of force on the deceased after his arrest.
Forensic Analysis by a pathologist as seen in the autopsy report clearly traced the cause of death to injuries inflicted on the deceased during his encounter with the Traffic Wardens.
