Civil Society Organizations in Rivers State have claimed
that the grievous wounds on the body of late Chima Ikwunado, indicate that the
deceased auto mechanic suffered brutal torture with machete cuts before his
death.
Chairman of Rivers Civil Society Organizations, Enefaa
Georgewill, in interview with newsmen at the University of Port Harcourt
Teaching Hospital where a new autopsy was conducted, said the marks on Late
Chima’s body are horrible.
Georgewill re-emphasized that Chima was tortured to death,
regardless of the outcome of the autopsy report.
“We have confirmed that the body is Chima and we must say
that with the level of torture that was meted on Chima was out of this world.
“Chima was not tortured to death, he was butchered to death;
cracked bones, handcuffs, neckcuffs, wounds and many more. The whole of his
hands were machete. You could see it. This is wickedness in the highest place
even when torture has been outlawed in our constitution.
“The Police that was meant to protect citizens decided to
maltreat a citizen to this level.
“With the level of injury I don’t think there is need for
any autopsy anymore. It is enough to conclude that Chima was butchered to
death.”
The family of the late Chima Ikwunado, the Police, the
Media, Civil Society Organizations and a clergy all witnessed the conduct of
the fresh autopsy.
The result of the fresh autopsy is still being awaited as at
press time.
Late auto-mechanic, Chima Ikwunado died in the custody of
the Eagle- Crack Squad at Mile 1, Diobu area of Port Harcourt, the Rivers State
capital after being accused of car theft
