In no time, he was given a beaten which ended his life because he was allegedly burnt to death after it.<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/c366e4bd92d74f7d84d5da05c43221fe\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The mother of the deceased was asked if she&#8217;s reported the incident and she answered in affirmative. She claimed that Police Officers first told her to pay for their taxi fare in order to arrest the culprits. Unfortunately, the real Culprits weren&#8217;t arrested till date. She said she&#8217;s sent over N40,000 to the Police Officers but they&#8217;re yet to do the right thing. On this basis, she wishes the governor of the state and human rights activists come to her aid and get justice for her deceased son named Anthony.<\/p>\n<p>Article&#8217;s Source: <strong>The Punch Newspaper.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Content created and supplied by: Musingreports (via  Opera<br \/>\nNews )<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"copyright hide\">\n<span class=\"content\">    ,  .   ,     .
