Fidelis Osaghae, a hotel manager at Va Lchi Fast Food and Bar in Auchi, died under questionable circumstances on July 29, 2024, and the Edo State Police Command has commenced an investigation into his death, as reported by LIB.
Osaghae's family, through the Akin Fadeyi Foundation (AFF), a nonprofit civil society organization, petitioned the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID), to probe the circumstances surrounding his death. The family claims that Osaghae was healthy and had no known health issues before his passing.
According to the petition, Osaghae made a video call to his wife at 1:30 a.m. and later returned to work after being asked to retrieve an item by his boss. However, his body was found with strange marks and injuries, suggesting that he may have been tortured before his death. The family is seeking justice and answers regarding the circumstances surrounding Osaghae's death.
The police spokesperson, SP Joel Yamu, confirmed that the case has been transferred to the State CID for further investigation. He assured that the outcome will be made public once the investigation is concluded. The police have promised a thorough investigation to uncover the circumstances surrounding Osaghae's death and bring those responsible to justice.
