An Ilorin High Court on Monday refused to order for an autopsy for Michael Adikwu, a principal suspect in the bloody April 5 Offa robbery incident in which 33 people were killed.
He had pleaded with the court that medical examination should be conducted to determine whether the wounds in the legs of the suspects was a product of gunshot as claimed by the suspects. According to him, since the police claimed that the suspects made voluntary confessional statement and were not tortured, medical examination should be conducted to know the truth.But the prosecution counsel, Wahab Egbewole, objected to the application, describing it as baseless and pointless.
NAN also reports that three suspects were injured on the legs while another suspect claimed the police tortured him to make false confession.
