Four Men Remanded for Allegedly Shooting Police Officers in Ilorin
According to news report from Daily Trust, four men, Yusuf Olamilekan, Abdulazeez Soliu, Shaeed Orilowo, and Babatunde Sikiru, have been remanded for allegedly shooting three police officers—Inspectors Alimi Yunusa, Isaac Olufemi, and Benson Eruvebeka—in Ilorin, Kwara State.
The police reported that the incident occurred when the suspects, along with Saka Shuaib (currently hospitalised), Mogaji Garba, and Emir Magaji (both at large), opened fire on the officers, a court bailiff, and a civil defence officer while they were enforcing a court judgement in the Oloje/Ogidi area of Ilorin
The police First Information Report (FIR) reads in part: “They suddenly attacked the team and opened fire on the police officers who came to rescue the workers, injuring them in the process.
“One camouflage police uniform was recovered in the house of Mogaji Garba, now at large. Investigation revealed that the suspects and others at large are the criminal elements terrorising the innocent people of Ogidi/Oloje axis and its environs.”
The prosecutor, Inspector Nasir Yusuf, urged the court to remand the suspects, while Barr Toyin Onaolapo countered his prayer, urging the court to release them on bail.
The Magistrate, Mohammed Ibrahim, remanded the suspects in prison and adjourned the case to July 25.
