The immediate past IG, Usman Baba, had set up a special investigation team to investigate the allegations.

The Force spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, in a statement on February 17 noted that the findings of the investigations would determine the next line of action, while promising that the police would leave no stone unturned in ensuring that justice was done in the case and sanctions meted to any officers found guilty.

Reacting to the development at a news conference in Onitsha on Friday, Ifijeh said the report should be released and adequate sanctions meted to any officer found guilty. Ifijeh said the conference was a stakeholders’ engagement forum aimed at interfacing with victims and family members of those who died as a result of extra-judicial killings with a view to providing solution and justice.

Flanked by other members of the branch, he stated, “It is a serious concern to us that the report of the investigation panel set up by the immediate past IG on the allegations of extra-judicial killings in Anambra has not been released five months after it was constituted.
