Snippets from the autopsy report on
the 25 corpses dumped inside Ezu River in Amansea, Awka North Local
Government Area of Anambra State, indicate that the deceased were
extra-judicially murdered.
Vanguard gathered from sources in Lagos last night that the pathologists, who carried out the autopsy, discovered some bullet wounds, bruises and other signs that the suspects did not die of natural causes.
The sources said although the results of the autopsy were scanty, it would be correct to assume that those whose corpses were thrown into the river had been in detention or custody.
Anambra State Commissioner for Health, Dr Lawrence Ikeakor, had said that government made “startling discoveries” from the corpses of three of the victims, whose bodies were initially exhumed, prompting it to order further investigations on the remaining bodies.
Tongues were wagging last night that some of those killed were suspected kidnap or armed robbery suspects in the custody of security agencies in the state.
