#EndSARS panel dismisses petition blaming suspect’s death on torture

The #EndSARS panel investigating complaints of police brutality in Abuja has dismissed the case of a suspect who allegedly died shortly after his release from an unlawful police detention and torture last year.

According to Mr Daomi, his brother’s detention since March 3, 2020, when he was contacted about his arrest, extended beyond the four weeks of last year’s“After the lockdown got lifted, I called my sister in Kubwa and we went to SARS office together. But on getting there, I couldn’t recognise my brother. His beards were unkempt, his fingernails were long and he had lost so much weight. I looked at my brother and cried,” Mr Daomi said.

“My brother started developing complications immediately he got released – first it was headache, low blood pressure, then he couldn’t talk or move his body parts. The #EndSARS panel chaired by Suleiman Galadima, a retired Justice of the Supreme Court dismissed the petition after Mr Daomi’s testimony on Tuesday.

He said the case was coined as one about extra-judicial killing when the facts in the petition showed it was a case of alleged unlawful detention. Mr Daoni, who maintained that the panel denied him fair hearing, said the wrong title stated in the cause list, the basis of which his petition was dismissed, did not emanate from the petition he submitted.
