Ikechi said he drove to a lonely road known for its nature of breeding car snatchers where he saw a mini bus approaching him.

” In that bus, I saw heads of guns and some men inside, I didn’t know they were policemen because they were not putting on their uniform.

” I was afraid, thinking they were bad people, I zoomed off on reverse till I got to the road where I saw people and also the filling station.

” I stopped there. Those men who were still chasing me, caught up with me . They didn’t ask me anything , they started beating me up and hitting me with guns on my waist and head”

” The deceased was put into my car, the Policemen asked me to move to the hospital that they will follow.

” The Policemen escaped but we later found them. When we saw them running, the army officer asked me to block their car, which I did.
