A young man identified as Onyebuchi Ernest Emeka has been reportedly died owing to injuries sustained from multiple knife stabs from the son of a Police Inspector, Ogbantu in the Warri Area Command, Delta state.

Reports from our Correspondent disclosed that the incident occurred at the Police Barracks near "A" Division and the Warri Area Command on Friday the 22nd of September at about 6pm.

Details as to why the suspect stabbed the victim to death is still sketchy as at the time of this report.

It was learnt that the deceased came to the Police Barracks when the suspect saw him.

He was confronted by the suspect and a serious argument ensued which led to a fight between the both of them. 

The suspect ran upstairs in the block "D" apartment, picked a knife and dagger, chased the deceased who ran for his dear life until he fell and he(suspect) stabbed him countless times without mercy.

The deceased was rushed to Lily hospital where he died as as a result of the bodily injuries he sustained from the stab.

As at the time of this report, the said Inspector had been arrested by the Police on the orders of the Area Commander and he is cooling off his heels in their cell.

When contacted for comments, the Delta State Police Command's Public Relations Officer, DSP Bright Edafe confirmed the report in a telephone chat with Our Correspondent in Warri. The Police image maker said, "It's confirmed."

The matter came to the fore when members of the Nigeria Civil Right Council in Delta State in collaboration with other Civil Right Organizations came into the matter as they demanded that the police should allow justice prevail in the matter. 

Ejumudo Tosan Bishop who spoke on behalf of the Nigerian Right Council appreciated the police for doing a good job but said the Police should release the said Inspector as well as do more by going after the fleeing suspect with all their Arsenals and apprehend him so that he faces the law saying; "They should not do arrest by proxy. It is not the father that committed the offence. They should release him and go after the boy. Let him come and face the law."

He expressed feats that what the police want to do is try to keep the inspector in custody and after sometime, release him and end the matter there. 

He warned, "that should not happen" pointing out that the father of the deceased who is blind is calling for justice for his son.
