Based on pictures that I have been seeing recently...graves are no longer getting to six feets.

Does anyone in the house have an empirical know-how, why there is a change? From my understanding 6 feets was the norm because it helps to prevent infections and risks for contamination and contacts with humans and animals who borrow into the earth and not too deep to contaminate drinking water.

Tears as Photographer Who was Reportedly Tortured to Death by SARS Officials is Buried (Photo)

The photographer, Kola Aderogba who was allegedly tortured to death by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad in Ibadan, Oyo state has been buried.


Photographer, Kola Aderogba has been buried amid tears after he was allegedly tortured to death

It was sadness, anger and mournful atmosphere in Ibadan as a photographer, Kola Aderogba was buried in Sango Cemetery, Ibadan, Oyo State, on Thursday.

Aderogba was allegedly tortured to death by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad. At the ceremony, family members and friends of the victim rained curses on the suspected killers as they called for justice, saying his death must not be in vain.

Punch reported that Aderogba was buried in a wooden coffin around 2pm. His younger sister, Seyi, who spoke with PUNCH Metro amidst tears, said the 55-year-old was never married due to disappointments he had from women.

She said, “We want God to hasten judgement on the killers of my brother. If the judge of the world is slack and unjust, God does not use pen and paper and does not wear robes. He looks at people’s works and I want God to examine the works of these men. From this moment, I don’t want them to have rest. Although he was 55, he was never married due to disappointments he got from women. Our parents are late. He was the eldest of three children. My brother did not smoke hemp or cigarette. He was a quiet man.”

PUNCH Metro had reported that Kola was taking a concoction of herbs at a joint in the Challenge area, Ibadan, around 8.30pm on April 21, when a team of policemen raided the spot.

He was alleged to have been arrested together with four others. The men were taken to the SARS office at Dugbe, where they were allegedly tortured. They were said to have been interviewed by a senior officer, who reportedly cleared them of wrongdoing and asked that they be released after paying for bail.

It was learnt that the suspects paid between N25,000 and N40,000 before they were released. The victim, who, however, could not raise any money and had no one to come for him, was detained for seven days. On the seventh day, a member of his church negotiated who N5,000, paid N3,500. He later went to look for the balance of N1,500.

While the church member was away, the policemen were said to have ordered a motorcycle rider to take him home. He was reported to have slumped and died on the motorcycle.

A family member, Olaolu Adeyeye, told PUNCH Metro on Thursday that after Kola’s death, he reported the case to the police at the Orita division, adding that the policemen did not give him attention.

He said another family member contacted the police spokesperson in the state, who ordered the Orita division to issue the family a police report. He said, “When we returned to the station, the policemen gave us the report with which we deposited the corpse in a morgue.

“The next day, we returned to the station and they took our statements. They later transferred the case to the area command at Iyaganku. At the command, we were asked to make another statements after which we were asked to go and conduct an autopsy.

“We contacted the doctors at the University College Hospital, Ibadan, and we were asked to pay for the autopsy. When we called a few days later, we were told that the result was ready. They, however, refused to issue us a copy, saying they had sent it to the police.”

Adeyeye said he confirmed from the police that the report was indeed ready, adding that the command asked him to make a formal request for a copy from the hospital.

According to Punch, a mild drama ensued at the command when some suspects, who were purportedly in the same cell with the deceased, were brought out to deny the report that he was tortured.

The suspects reportedly stated that Kola injured himself in the cell by putting his legs in a shackle. A cousin of the victim, who did not want to be identified due to the presence of some cops at the scene of the burial, called for justice.

She said, “No man can escape death and that is the reason we should all fear God. We may have buried him now, but I know God does not sleep. He will give the right judgment.”

Count me in too, for a contribution.

If the DPO of that station is still in office, then know that the Commissioner condones what they do, and are therefore PARTNERS IN CRIME.

Why will this continue to happen? Because all our prominent people including religious leaders will never speak.

No politician will condemn this act, no General overseer will ask for justice. The poor will likely continue to die in the hands of police, and never will there be justice.

Never rest in peace, until you revenge your death. Chase your killers and those helping them to cover up to madness and to shameful death.

I wish I can like this comment more than once.
Imagine how worthless a life of a common man is in this country.
This man was murdered and there is nobody protesting his death like its a normal thing.
I guess his only crime was his financial state of being poor.
OMG, this country is very pathetic!

Let's show this people we mean business. Enough is enough. Let's go on Twitter and demand for the resignation of the CP of Lagos state Police command. The incident that happened in onipanu has been swept under the mat. Now this one would take the same course if we don't make our voices heard.

This is so sad. We need to start reporting this type of behavior and blow whistle crimes and police brutality. There is a Nigeria whistle blowing mobile app available on google play store. Its called SeeSomeTin. You can use it to report crimes, domestic violence, police brutality etc. I just downloaded it.

This bastards should be labeled special robbery squad, they are always dressed like part of the requirements for the job is to look untidy. Some of their men stopped me yesterday at ogudu and brought to my attention that my vehicle license had expired in April, I told him it was an oversight, that I will just get the renewal done immediately, he was like my offense will cost me 22000, if I get to their office that how do I want to settle them there, I had to pay the hungry men 2000 so they can release me in time and I went to the bank to renew the license immediately.

The only reason why Nigerian police are given a bit of respect is because of their guns. Take the guns away and see how people will disrespect and abuse them..
