Breaking News : Autopsy Reports Show Sylvester Oromoni Died Naturally – ODUMOSU (Lagos CP)
Following the controversies surrounding the Lagos State Government’s clearance of five students and staff of Dowen College, Lekki, earlier linked to Sylvester Oromoni’s death, Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, has revealed that both autopsies conducted on the deceased 12-year-old indicated that he died naturally.
According to Odumosu both results were conducted in Lagos and Warri. He added that Delta State never linked the child’s death to the ingestion of chemical substances or that he had any internal injuries that led to his death.
The commissioner, who made the disclosure on Friday during a press briefing held at the Command in Ikeja, stressed that the investigations were transparent, saying all parties were present during the second autopsy
He stated that the need for clarity was to dispel public uncertainties about the case and to defuse public outrage over charges made publicly on various social media platforms accusing law enforcement of collusion.
“At the conclusion of the thorough investigation conducted thus far, there is no evidence to support a case of torture, bullying, or the use of dangerous drugs against the accused.” The charges of torture, bullying, and delivering deadly chemicals to the deceased were all refuted by all of the suspects.
“The claim that the deceased was compelled to join a cult was also debunked by other pupils interviewed.”
