A disturbing video obtained by 9News Nigeria has revealed the final moments of a Nigerian man from Awka North in Anambra State, who died following a violent encounter with Swiss police in Lausanne, Switzerland.

According to report, Kelechi was in Anambra in January to bury his father before going back only to finally meet his untimely death.


In the footage, the man, identified as Kelechi, is seen pinned down on a street by a Swiss police officer. Despite his repeated cries of "You're hurting me," the officer continues to forcefully restrain him. The incident unfolded on Sunday night and ended with Kelechi collapsing and dying less than an hour later at a police station.

According to AFP, Swiss prosecutors confirmed that the 39-year-old man collapsed during police custody and died despite emergency resuscitation efforts. The Vaud regional Public Prosecutor’s Office has opened a criminal investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding his death.

Authorities said police had approached the man in central Lausanne around 9:00 p.m. local time during a routine check. They claimed his behavior suggested possible drug-related activity. It was alleged that the man reportedly fled the scene but was later arrested after resisting.

“After the situation calmed down, the man was taken to the police station for questioning,” officials stated. “During the intervention, he became unwell and died shortly before 10:00 p.m., despite efforts by emergency medical services to revive him.”

The prosecutor’s office has ordered an autopsy and said further forensic investigations are ongoing. Forensic pathologists and crime scene experts are assisting with the probe.

This incident adds to a troubling pattern of police-related deaths among Black residents in Switzerland, particularly in the canton of Vaud. According to the Swiss news agency Keystone-ATS, four Black men have died following police interventions in the region between 2016 and 2021, prompting widespread protests against racism and police brutality.

One of those cases involved Mike Ben Peter, a 39-year-old Nigerian who died in 2018 after a forceful arrest during a drug search near Lausanne railway station. Pinned face-down by six officers, he suffered a heart attack and died in hospital hours later. In 2024, a Vaud appeals court upheld the acquittal of the officers, who had been charged with negligent homicide.

Two other deaths involving police shootings were ruled acts of self-defence, while one case remains unresolved.

Kelechi’s death has sparked renewed concerns about systemic racial bias and the use of excessive force by law enforcement in Switzerland. The Nigerian community in Switzerland has embarked on widespread protests demanding justice for the young Nigerian man.

Meanwhile, efforts by 9News Nigeria to reach Nigerian authorities—including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Diaspora Affairs Commission—for comment or intervention have, so far, been unsuccessful. Contacts are still being made to secure an official response and possible requisite action.

Y carry drugs in another man's land?..


Can't they do legit business, if u play dirty games u will win dirty prices.

These is the same thing people like him are going everywhere to make travelling difficult for others, I don't pity them.

And if u want to talk about politicians that they are d ones giving d country a bad name, let me make it clear that many people outside Nigeria don't even know tinubu or any politician but they know of d African prince, they know about hushpuppy, they know about invictus obi.


Imagine u introduce yourself as a Nigerian outside n the person ask u if u can tell them about the African prince

Imagine if the ask u how hard drugs looks like cos they know that's what we do

Imagine when they ask u questions like, how do Nigerians feel scamming people?

I remember I once introduce myself as a Nigerian in Abu Dhabi n the lady shouted awusubilahi, na later I know say awusubilahi na God rebuke d devil

And all the guy was busy doing was developing Switzerland

Hmmm Saner Clime insane Clime oh...



Have come to conclusions Police are the same everywhere just that Saner Clime have Video recordings to dere own if them catch u for where no cam dey u might see worst...



So always tread with caution no matter the country you're once it's Police behave and maintain a life lost can't be recovered no matter the Justice...

George Floyd replicated in switzerland.

Cardiac arrest from harassment or fear of prosecution 🤔

Maybe some disproportionate force was used - That will be determined by an inquiry. However, nothing suggest brutality as connotated..

I

Switzerland will soon go back to stone age, as they are resisting development and FDIs from the largest investment fund out of Africa.

Before anyone accuse him of being a drug dealer, he hasn't been convicted, he's still a suspect and that doesn't justify why the police should kill him. Let him face justice, let him serve his sentence if he's guilty. He'll most likely get a jail time sentence and not a death sentence.

Sad but let's always be very thorough in evaluating our choices in life.

Integrity is an investment, it is capital for life and business.

You conclude too fast which exposes you as a lesser intelligent fellow.

There's a process called investigation to determine what happened before then and after. So stfu and watch.

Hope he did not swallow the drug to clear evidence.

You are the type of person who will moan about the fact that George Floyd was a criminal and have nothing whatsoever to say about a policeman kneeling on his neck for nine minutes.

Very young and active. Why not go for legit jobs over there.. am sure is better than Nigerian jobs here if you check the salary scale and the worth of euros..
Gone too soon

Hope the people from the east change their regards for drug related activities though.

Waiting for team “saner climes”…..

In 2024, a Vaud appeals court upheld the acquittal of the officers, who had been charged with negligent homicide.

Two other deaths involving police shootings were ruled acts of self-defence, while one case remains unresolved.

NO excuse for this.

Even if he's a criminal. the Police have no right to take his life. The Police cannot be the judge and executioner.

If this had happened in the US, I would not be surprised one bit, but Swiss Police? A complete shocker.

US police officers are worse than Nigerian police, especially the white ones, except that they do not ask for bribes.
