#JusticeForChima: Late Mechanic’s Apprentices Narrate How Their Boss Was Allegedly Tortured to Death
Apprentices of a motor mechanic, Chima Ikwunado, who died in the Police cell after being allegedly tortured to death have recounted their ordeal in the hands of the officers of the Eagle-Crack(A.K.A E-Crack) Police Mile 1 PHC Rivers State.
According to a narration of a car owner, who is one of Chima’s clients, the Police had arrested the mechanic with his apprentice while they were testing the cars they just repaired plying one-way.
On seeing over N100,000 0 on them during the arrest, the Police took them to their station, tied them and got tortured to confess to crimes they didn’t commit.
