Family alleges extra-judicial killing by police
The family of Stanley Etim, 23, allegedly slain by the police at the weekend in Calabar is demanding justice through the Inspector General of Police, Mr. Suileman Abba.
Representative of the family, Supol Arit Nyong, claims the deceased was beaten to dead by policemen attached to `D5` in Calabar.
Arit Nyong, Chief Superintendent of Prisons, Medicals, Aunty to the deceased told Daily Times in Calabar on Sunday that unless killers of their son were brought to book, the officers involved in the matter would know no peace.
“I am shocked that the policemen who killed our son can still have the temerity to ask the deceased family to hands off or bail the corpse claiming the deceased was a robber… She lamented,
“… What right has the killer officers to murder our son when his guilt had not yet been proved. If they feel he committed the offence, they ought to have allowed justice to prevail,” she insisted insisted.
