A suspected military officer is on the run after he reportedly slit the throat of a man during an argument on Wednesday in the Itire area of Lagos State.
A further report had it that all efforts to rescue the victim who was rushed to the emergency centre for treatment proved abortive.
A man identified as Samuel Agbolajo in a post on his Facebook account had claimed that the suspect was arrested by policemen from the Itire Police Division.
Agbolajo added the military man was later released by the policemen in an alleged bid to cover up the incident.
“Man slaughtered by a force man all because of argument. The Itire Police Station released the suspect all because he is a force man. We need the support of fellow Nigerians; they want to sweep this case under the carpet. Justice must be served. #PCRC #NIGERIAPOLICE”.
The spokesperson of the Lagos State Police Command, Bala Elkana said, “We have no such case. I spoke with the Itire Divisional Police Officer and he said no such case was reported. Maybe it happened in another location, but not Itire.”
