UDUAK AKPAN, ALLEGED KILLER OF INIUBONG UMOREN TO BE PROSECUTED SOON

The Nigeria Police, Akwa Ibom State Command, has announced that the case of Uduak Akpan, a suspected killer of Iniubong Umoren, a job seeking graduate in Akwa Ibom State has not been transferred to the Department of State Service, DSS and that the suspect would be prosecuted soon.


On Monday, in Uyo, the State capital, the command’s Public Relations Officer Odiko Macdon said Akpan’s case file was at the Directorate of Public Prosecution, DPP, and the suspect was remanded in the State Correctional centre.


He said it would be wrong for the police to hands-off the case after going through the hurdles of arresting the suspect under 24hours of allegedly committing the crime, exhuming the victim’s corpse and subjecting the same for autopsy.

He added that the command had enough evidence to prosecute Uduak Akpan and wondered why some people would assume that police had backed out of the case.


He further said that it was only the police that were empowered by law to handle such cases and questioned why they would abdicate their responsibility.


“The main thing is that we apprehended the suspect. He was remanded in prison alongside other suspects. We have transferred the case file to DPP and we are waiting for advice,” he added.
