Omexonomy: Why made dem go true pains and torture when the police new they were innocent.

olenyi: I believe now they will be investigated by the Pharmaceuticals Society of Nigeria, and if found culpable, will be purnished accordenly.

colly227: The two men, Maduakor Chukwunonso and Orji Osita who are pharmacists of Oxpharm Pharmacy, were accused of selling Rohpynol Flunitrazepam-a sedative without proper prescription and were eventually charged with murder and felony.

Speaking to Channels TV after their release, counsel to the pharmacists, Uchenna Nwoye said the pharmacists were released based on the advice of the Director of Public Prosecution.

According to Mr Nwoye, the presiding Judge, Justice Adeniyi Onigbanjo of the Lagos High court, had on the 20th of November ruled that “there was no evidence where the pharmacists had an agreement with the first and second defendants to kill the late Ms Osokogu.”

He further ruled that the pharmacists have no case to answer and decided ordered that the pharmacists should be discharged.

Counsel to the two pharmacists had proceeded to the High Court following the delay of the Magistrate Court led by Magistrate Aka-Bashorun to grant the prayer of the defendants following the advice of the Director of Public Prosecution.

The duo were earlier charged with the other defendants for unlawfully killing Cynthia Osokogu by administering her with an obnoxious substance known as Rohpynol Flunitrazepam tablets which was used to sedate her before her rape and murder.

Officials of the Pharmaceuticals Society of Nigeria, however shield the discharged Pharmacists from talking to our correspondent.

Thank God the Nigerian police is taking the case seriously. . .

I am not sure if I understand this post but shouldn't there be something called controlled drugs? drugs that should NEVER be made available to buy over the counter if it is possible to cause even the slightest harm to the human body.These drugs should ONLY be available by prescription.

FEEL FREE TO CRUCIFY ME PLEASE but this aint right!They should be purnished for selling out a potentially harmful drug JUST LIKE THAT!!

“there was no evidence where the pharmacists had an agreement with the first and second defendants to kill the late Ms Osokogu.”

Really?What a big stinking joke!! But they sold the killers a drug which was termed as an obnoxious substance (Rohpynol Flunitrazepam tablets) which by virtue should never have found its way to their shelfs. Why stock it in first place. I dont believe this is their first time really and this whole case just reeks of something I can't place my hand on.

Cherechy: At times like this I'm proud of my profession. Kudos to the Lawyer that got this judgment.
Go and sin no more guys

At this point, you will do well to settle down..

- Every drug has the potential to kill.. If in doubt, go and swallow 20 tablets of Paracetamol and tell me how that works out for you..

- The boys simply sold 'PRESCRIPTION DRUGS' to 'Policemen' who were carrying out a sting operation.

- There is no crime in selling prescription drugs without a prescription, especially when it was sold to adults. Its called 'MALPRACTICE'.

- There is no direct evidence that links these Pharmacists to the Perps apart from 'The words of the Perps'.

- They may have sold the drugs to them, does not make them an accomplice to murder. A man who sells a car to a 14 year old boy cannot be charged with murder if the boy kills someone whilst driving the car.

- They might still be punished by the Phamaceutical Association of Nigeria, but not by the Police.

Case closed..

You will also have to get your faceless self RE-CHECKED back into rehab cos it appears to me that your unknown extinct self is high on cheap drugs.
Someone like you and me lies stone dead in the mortuary because a half baked self professed pharmacist choose to sell controlled drugs to some idiots and you are here chatting shit to me with some bogus and UNACCEPTABLE TERMS! Feel free to chat me more dust but you can be rest assured that I am fired up to reply people like you who find it so convinient to find an excuse for everything under the sun which also explains why you have gone ahead to create a new ID to reply me.Too bad this is a faceless forum.

Do me a favour,stick your 'faceless' face where the sun don't shine!
