The Rivers State Police Command has exhumed the decomposing body of Justice Azunda, Chief Protocol Officer to the former Chief of Staff, Rivers State Government House, Emeka Woke.
According to The PUNCH, Azunda, a Chief Superintendent of Police, was in a meeting in Isiodo community, Emuoha Local Government Area of the state when gunmen stormed the venue and abducted him three weeks ago.
After the incident, his whereabouts remained unknown until Thursday afternoon, when his charred remains were discovered in a shallow grave inside a forest in Elibrada, Emuoha LGA.
The recovery was made after the police arrested a member of the late notorious kidnapper’s gang, NWordi’s gang, who, upon interrogation, confessed that Justice was killed and buried in their camp.
The suspect later took the police and members of the Emuoha Local Government Vigilante Service to their camp in a boundary forest between Elibrada and the Ogbodo community in Ikwerre LGA.
The police team led by the Divisional Police Officer of Rumuji Division, in collaboration with the vigilante, bagged and moved the body to a mortuary in his hometown.
