The Lagos State Police Command has confirmed the death of a middle-aged
man who was found dangling from a rope in an uncompleted building on Rasaki
Sodande Street in Aboru, Iyana Ipaja area of Lagos state on Monday.
Residents were said to have reported the matter to a nearby Police
Station in that community.
Investigations by the police, however, have proven that the deceased,
identified only as Tunde, was murdered in the early hours of Sunday.
He is believed to have been killed before he was taken to the building,
pretended to be as if he hanged himself
The state Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, SP Dolapo Badmos,
confirmed the incident, saying the police would fish out the perpetrators of
the crime.
According to her, “Operatives of the division are going to unravel the
cause of death and the perpetrators of the dastardly act. His age and surname
are yet to be known and we are looking for his family members.
“But we have recovered the body and deposited it in a public morgue for
autopsy. The case is under discreet investigation.”
OneNigeriaBlog.com gathered that Tunde was purportedly strangled before
he was hung with a rope to give the impression that he committed suicide; as
there were marks of violence on his body, which made the police believe that it
was a murder case and not suicide as people were made to believe.
