A 27-year-old 500 level law student of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State, Augustine Ukwu has been reported dead following an incident with a police officer.
The late Augustine was allegedly murdered by an officer of the Nigerian police force in Nsukka, Enugu State — this is according to a report by Vanguard News.
Ukwu was reported 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 the Anti-cult in Nsukka, Ferdinand Nnamdi Ochi, who allegedly murdered him over a yet-to-be-identified issue.
The deceased father, Andy Samuel Ugwu, —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.
