Anambra police reacts to trending video of sister recounting how kidnappers k!lled her brother after he refused to obey their order for him to sleep with her.
The Anambra state police command has reacted to the trending video of a young lady recounting how her brother was k!lled by suspected kidnappers.
In the trending video, the young lady recounted how herself, her brother and another sister of theirs were on the farm working when the assailants abducted them and took them into the bush. While in the bush, she said the kidnappers ordered her to remove her clothes and for her brother to have carnal knowledge of her. She said her brother stated that instead of him to carry out their order, they should rather k!Il him. The bereaved sister said immediately, the assailants used their machete to hack her brother right before her eyes.
She said the assailants then ordered her and her other sister to start running away from them before they k!! them.
Reacting to the trending video via a statement, the state police PRO, Tochukwu Ikenga, said the state Commissioner of Police, CP Ikioye Orutugu, condemned the attack and described it as heartless and barbaric act.
“The CP while condoling with the grieving family as well as the good people of Amansea, ordered the Operatives of the State Intelligence Department to identify the survivor to assist the Police in its Investigation. The Command urges members of the public to remain calm, vigilant, and cooperative by providing credible information that will aid the swift arrest of the suspects!”
He mentioned that the CP reiterated the Command’s resolve to remain firm in the fight against k!dnapping and other v!olent crimes in the State. He further assured that the Command will continue to prioritize the protection of every citizen in line with the constitutional responsibility of safeguarding lives and property.
