#EndSARS: Man Sells His Daughter’s Graveyard To Secure Dead Son’s Freedom

More revelations have emerged about the atrocities of the defunct Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) in Anambra, South-East Nigeria as families of victims continue to testify at the Judicial Panel of Inquiry (JPI) set up to investigate cases of extrajudicial killings and police brutality.

One of those who testified before the panel was Emmanuel Iloanya who said he raised over N27 million from the sale of three landed properties including where he buried his second daughter to secure the release of his 20-year-old son, Chijioke who was arrested on November 29, 2012.

Iloanya said unknown to him, his son was dead but Police officers, human right activists and other intermediaries fleeced him of his money with a promise to assist him to secure freedom for his son.

He said his son was arrested at a naming ceremony by policemen from Ajali Division who refused to allow his wife to bail him but later transferred him to SARS facility in Awkuzu the next day.

The distraught father disclosed that he got the shock of his life and when James Nwafor, the Commanders of SARS Awkuzu then told him and his wife that his son had been ‘wasted and nothing will happen’.

He said the death of his son was painful but it would have been comforting if he saw the corpse of his son and buried him himself, even as he insisted that his son was not dead yet.

“At Awkuzu, they denied to have arrested him but on our second visit I saw my son at the SARS gate in chains and handcuffs,” Iloanya said.

“When my wife asked him what he did not say anything but just gesticulated that nothing.
“Suddenly, James Nwafor, the Commander of SARS rushed out of his office and started harassing us, pushing my wife. I went to Bala Nassarawa, the commissioner of police who assured me that my son will not die.”

“The CP summoned Nwafor but he did not answer him, so he said I should wait after Christmas. To my surprise, the CP told me my son died during a gun duel with the police. I said no, that I was here and he (CP) assured me nothing will happen to him.”

He told the panel how the then SARS Commandant that his son was wasted.

“When I saw Nwafor he said ‘ I am sorry to tell you that your son has been wasted, you cannot do anything get out from this office” and my wife collapsed,” Iloanya narrated.

“I sold properties, three properties for N12 million, N8 million and N7 million. All these I spent in the bid to secure the release of my son but they were telling me lies when they knew my son was dead.”

He lamented that a graveyard where had buried his late daughter two years before the incident was among the properties he sold to secure the release of his son.

“I sold it because of this matter, I sold the land where I buried my second daughter,” said Iloanya who insisted that all he wanted is justice.

“I have spent what this panel can give me, I want justice, let the government bring these policemen here to tell me what my son did,” he said.

Abdul Mahmud, a human rights lawyer who appeared for Iloanya told the panel his client had credible evidence against Nwafor including his Tweet where he admitted that he was the commander when Chijioke was murdered.

Mahmud said the panel should subpoena him to appear and respond to the allegations against him personally.

Innocent Obi, a Superintendent of Police (SP) who appeared for the police said he needed time to respond to the issues raised and his application was granted by the chairman of the panel, Justice Veronica Umeh.

It's crazy we live in a country were getting justice is like asking for buhari's live video addressing the citizens, imagine the wickedness and atrocities that went unabhorred , and to think that James nwafor he's still somewhere walking freely. After selling their Landed properties for a whopping 27m they took the money only for them to tell u that Ur son is dead u should go that there's nothing you can do about it, a country were the security forces see their selves as the law, judge and the persecutor.

The funny part is all this panel they are setting up nothing good is going to come out of it, sad but is the truth because most of the people setting up the panel are involved in the atrocities one way or the other, if James nwafor appeared in the panel which I doubt just know that the governor knew his whereabouts all this time. But one thing I know if man cannot give justice God will surely give it undiluted. more revelations will be revealed just fasting Ur sit belt people. Meanwhile first ftc

Too bahd

Bad

This James Nwafor really need to be hanged for all these atrocities he committed.Even satan will shouder in horror with his wickedness.

Demons on human flesh. What I don't get is this, why would you waste an innocent life that you cannot create? It's as if these people believe that they would never die, that they are untouchables, even death is afraid of them, but at the end of the day, we will all visit our 6ft permanent home. Only the afterlife will tell.

Blood sucking vampires called SARS.

“When I saw Nwafor he said ‘ I am sorry to tell you that your son has been wasted, you cannot do anything get out from this office” and my wife collapsed,” Iloanya narrated.

Indeed.
"Guns don't kill people, people kill people."

Is it true that the Nwafor man will testifying at the panel tomorrow?

Damnnn niggarrrr
Isoright.....sars atrocities too much sha...

Edo state own worse...Benin city to be precise
Fear nor dey let us drive our car again

If we want go out na commercial bus
Even the commercial bus them go say make boys come down......begin request for your phone
If you refuse them go say them want shoot you

And still the son was killed and he told the father to swim in a river of dead bodies to look for the body..this is a different level of cold heartedness.. killing this man isn't enough, let every money those people paid be paid with interest that it would have accumulated over the years, let the NPF sponsor a mental rehab for the fam because I'm sure their mental health can't be the same and let the current governor of Anambra answer to why he still employed him as CSO despite the numerous attrocities be committed
