Mohbad: We Are Yet To Receive Autopsy From Pathologists – Police
  • PublishedDecember 29, 2023

The Lagos State Police Command has said it was yet to receive the report of the autopsy conducted on late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba popularly known as Mohbad.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, in an interview with newsmen on Thursday, reiterated that the command had not gotten the result from the pathologists.

The police spokesperson was responding to the demands of a civil society organisation, the Take It Back Movement, seeking the conclusion of the investigation into Mohbad’s case

The Head of the Gender Department of the group, Omolola Pedro, had in a press text on Thursday, called on the police to “stop the needless delays, make public its findings from the investigation, and protect the rights of the deceased’s wife and child.”

The organisation also feared that prolonged delay in the probe was capable of exposing Mohbad’s wife, Wumi, and child, Liam “to several attacks like cyberbullying, cyberstalking, organised malicious campaigns against their persons, and even physical harassment” alleging that this was “the same fate Mohbad suffered while he was alive.”

Pedro added that the police “must immediately conclude the investigation and make its findings public.”

But reacting, Hundeyin said, “We’re not the pathologists who carried out the autopsy.

“When they (the pathologists) give us their report, we’ll conclude our investigation. For now, that’s what we’re waiting for. Except they want us to do guesswork, we can’t guess; we need to get the report and see the content of the result and we don’t have it yet.”
