Dominic Adeyemi, a cousin of the deceased Julius Berger worker allegedly shot dead by a Police officer with the Bori Division in Rivers State, has accused the Police of manhandling him, while trying to dispossess him of the document he used to deposit his corpse in a mortuary.
Adeyemi, in a chat with journalists on Wednesday, accused the Police of killing his cousin for protesting peacefully.
He said his family was in deep pain due to the incident and that he was the breadwinner of the house.
“…They tried to dispossess me of the documents I used to deposit his corpse in a mortuary. Yesterday, I did not see any of them (Julius Berger and police). On top of it, I was manhandled,” he said.
He called on relevant agencies to investigate the incident and bring perpetrators of the crime to justice.
Dominic also called on the government to come to their aide, as the deceased left five children behind.
