Army Probes Soldiers For Torturing Terrorist To Death by GistMore10: 2:11am On Nov 05, 2019 |
The Nigerian Army has said it is investigating and will sanction soldiers caught on a video torturing a suspected Boko Haram terrorist to death at a location believed to be in the North-East geopolitical zone. A video showing some army personnel torturing and killing a suspected Boko Haram member has been circulating on the social media for some days now. In the video, the soldiers after killing the victim buried the corpse in a shallow grave. But the acting Director, Army Public Relations, Col. Sagir Musa, in a release on Monday, said Nigerians would be briefed on the outcome of the investigations. He said, “The attention of the army has been drawn to a video reportedly showing some army personnel engaged in unprofessional torture and above all extrajudicial killing of a suspected Boko Haram terrorist likely in the North-East theatre of operation. “The army strongly condemns the action of those involved (whoever they may be) in the misconduct, and that the dastardly act is completely unacceptable and unethical. The army’s training; rules of engagement and standing operating procedures guiding the conduct of all its operations are unambiguous about human rights abuses and extrajudicial actions including the rights of the arrested or captured terrorists and combatants. “Troops in the various theatres of operations in Nigeria have been consistently warned to desist from rights’ infractions of any form no matter the amount of desperation, anger or provocation. The army does not license, encourage or condone indiscipline, unprofessional conduct especially extrajudicial execution of suspects or combatants. “Where ever such is noticed or reported, once it is confirmed, appropriate decisive sanction or punishment is usually immediately meted out to the perpetrators and this case would never be an exception. “Accordingly, on seeing the gory video, the army has commenced a thorough investigation to apprehend the culprits with a view to dealing with them in accordance with the extant military justice system. Members of the public will surely be informed of the results of the actions taken so far.” Gist from Gistmore http://gistmore.com/army-probes-soldiers-for-torturing-terrorist-to-death 1 Like

Boko haram dont trouble Chad and Niger. And dont really trouble Cameroun. The demography , topography and geology of the territory they seek in Nigeria exist in abundance in all those countries. And those countries are much more feeble and therefore more vulnerable. So why Nigeria? It is abundantly clear that our neighbours are not committed to the fight against the insurgency. The insurgency uses their territories to plan and launch attacks on us. We have tried conventional diplomacy . It hasnt worked. We may have to try something asymmetric. We have to needle those countries. We have been begging and pampering. We have to pinch them. We have to use our resources and affect the internal affairs of those countries. We can do it. They are small. We have to upset the politics in those countries. We have to throw our weight behind leaders , even if they be in opposition , who will pledge to fight boko haram with their hearts. We have proximity. It's self-interest first. France cant stop us. Siddon look won't work. Paddy paddy hasn't worked. We need to disrupt things. And about inhuman treatment melted out even to an alleged Terrorist, is frowned upon by this Constitution. So the army is right in investigating his death. 50 Likes 2 Shares |

As a real niggarrr No body should encourage injustice He was a suspected terrorists and not a convicted terrorists Injustice anywhere is a treat to justice everywhere This was exactly what led to the emergence of boko haram incessant killing Boko haram was a harmless group during Yusuf era But when they were protesting peacefully due to the unfulfilling promises by borno state governor their leader Yusuf was captured and handcuffed But shockingly, Yusuf dead body was shown the next day Only for Police to claim he wanted to run and they killed him Now the question is can a man on handcuff run? The Nigerian government and the police couldn't give an explanation So boko haram got angry and that was how this Thier killing and bombing started 7 Likes |

The savagery in me says, "he should have been cutting him SLOWLY, de-membering him one day at a time, with a smile. Till only his skeleton is left. However, the knowledge in me says, if you keep him and get some information from him, you will achieve two things. 1. Enjoy breaking his bones during questioning 2. You will have more bones to break as a result of the information he provided. 3. As a bonus, you could even have some to de-member. on the flip side, Nigeria arm that killed IPOB members with a smile and destroyed Odi, is now talking about human rights (on terrorist issue). by the way, has Nigeria even paid Odi community the damages that court awarded them? 5 Likes 1 Share |
