The coalition of Civil Society Organizations in Rivers State has issued a 48-hour ultimatum to the Rivers State Police Command to avail them of the Autopsy report carried out on the remains of the late Ikoku Mechanic, Chima Ikwunado.
Dr Cornell Chukwuegbo, pathologist for Chima’s family said the autopsy report was not for public consumption and has been submitted to the Commissioner of Police, Mustapha DanDaura.
According to him, autopsy reports are not made public except through the appropriate channels.
But the chairman of RIVSCO, Enefaa Georgewill, vowed to lead massive protests against the police if the autopsy report is not made available to the family of the late mechanic and other concerned stakeholders within 48 hours.
