As family decries continued detention of corpse by Police

OWERRI— Imo State Police Command, yesterday, said it was determined to unravel what killed the ace actor, Mr. Sam Loco Efe, in Rapour Hotel, Owerri, last Sunday.

The Assistant Commissioner of Police in charge of the Criminal Investigation Department, CID, Mr. Emmanuel Ojukwu, who spoke to Vanguard, said: “We are investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of the ace Nollywood actor in his hotel room in Owerri.

The man attained a national and international status and we are duty bound to get all the details of the matter.”

Meanwhile, friends and family members of the Nollywood actor have decried the delay in releasing his corpse to them by the police.

A family member, yesterday told Vanguard, that the police had shifted the blame for the delay on logistics, adding that they were insisting on carrying out autopsy to ascertain the cause of the actor’s death.

Similarly, Governor Sullivan Chime of Enugu State, has described Sam Loco’s death as “a great loss to the entertainment industry, Enugu State and Nigeria at large.”

It's very irresponsible to post pictures of corpses on a Public forum. We all know the dude is late, and we don't require pictures to validate that!

Lets assume that pix was one of his acting scene, if it was snapped when he had been pronounced dead, d family member or friend dat snapped it for God knows why reasons, has nt shown him respect at all.

investigation? that will take another 2years

The Police must be waiting for result of DNA, finger prints found in the crime scene, also there is toxicology report the have to get before the body is released.

Rest in peace Mr Loco, Nollywood sure will miss your acting.

Because of foam in his mouth, I think police need to investigate that.

It may be from poison or from heart problem.

They better react in time
