A police corporal, Daramola Tosin,
attached to the Ekiti Police Division in the Ekiti Local Government Area
of Kwara State, has been dismissed from the Force for allegedly killing
an inspector, Mr. Lateef Shuaib.
Tosin allegedly shot Shuaib after secretly withdrawing up to N300,000 from Shuaib’s bank account without his consent.
PUNCH Metro learnt that Shuaib had entrusted Tosin with his Automated Teller Machine card when he fell ill.
The suspect was said to have initially withdrawn money for the use of the father of two.
However, it was learnt that the suspect
started taking money in bits from the account for his own use until he
withdrew up to N300,000.
Shuaib was said to have chided him for the action.
The inspector was reportedly defecating
when Tosin shot him dead with an AK-47 rifle and buried him at the back
of a police barracks.
The victim’s sister, Sherifat Hammed,
was said to have reported to the Osi Police Station on May 10, 2016,
that Shuaib had been missing since May 6.
Hammed said she suspected Tosin because
her elder brother informed her when he was sick that he entrusted his
UBA ATM card to the suspect to help him in withdrawing money.
The Kwara State Commissioner of Police,
Mr. Sam Okaula, said when the matter was brought to his attention he
ensured that discreet investigation was conducted, adding that the
suspect was arrested.
According to him, the corporal confessed to the crime and was dismissed.http://www.punchng.com/corporal-kills-buries-inspector-n300000/
