Typical of our security operatives. Indiscriminate arrests! It is always the easy targets that suffer for the crimes of many. The operatives are too lazy, and too dumb to carryout proper investigations so they just arrest anyone nearby the crime scene! So many people are rotting away in jail just because of this incompetence. And it extends to the judiciary system also. Where is the justices in detaining someone for years without any charge?
Those Aluu people should all be arrested. They stood around watching the scene with relish. Nobody should pity such heartless, evil people that could kill such innocent young boys with such cruelty. Let them prove their innocence before they are released. Ikwere people have always been known for their wickedness but this surpasses the imagination. They are cursed!
They should face the music, the crazy blood-suckers!
