Shock pervaded the quiet atmosphere of the Ebute Meta Magistrate’s Court, Lagos, after an investigating police officer, Corporal Alagbe Olumide, admitted that he was forced by his Oga to arraign an innocent man, Ayodimeji Alegbeleye, for a murder crime he never committed.

Alegbeleye, 29, was being tried for the murder of one James Igbahan in January 2013 at Ajah. The police had claimed that the accused stabbed Igbahan with knife in his left ribs which led to his death...

After 2-counts were read to him, and he had pleaded not guilty, the prosecution lawyer filed application for his remand in prison custody pending the advice from the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions.

However, the defence counsel protested the application, saying the accused knew nothing about the crime.

Thereafter Magistrate M.O Tanimola summoned the police to give an account of what had transpired.

In his report to the court, Corporal Olumide said he was told to arraign the accused, adding that the investigation had shown that he was only a friend to the real suspect.

In his words, “My Lord, it was his friend that stabbed the deceased. The real offender is now at large. Alegbeleye was arraigned because we found him at the scene of the crime.

“The junior brother of the suspect had earlier been arrested, but the Ajah Police Division released him.”

When the Magistrate queried why the man was charged when he was not the suspect, Corporal Olumide said “The police authorities said I should charge him with murder. I told them that my investigation showed he was not part of it, but they insisted that I should charge him, and I didn’t know what to do,” he submitted.

Corporal Olumide said statements taken from the accused showed he had returned from his work and met the two men arguing over matters connected with cultism.

He said he then went out to take his bath and on returning, found the deceased in a pool of blood and with knife wounds. He said the police arrested him because he was a friend of the suspect.

The magistrate, in her ruling said since the accused was being punished for a crime he did not commit, there were no grounds for remand.

The good Magistrate thus struck out the case and set the man free, unconditionally.

From what .Com gathered, the Police headquarters in Abuja are yet to query all those involved in this monumental abuse of authority by a police Oga.
