Three officials of the Department of State Service have
allegedly beaten a policeman, Fawale Rauf, 35, to death.
Rauf was attached to Dada Estate Police Station, Osogbo, the
Osun State capital.
It was gathered that Rauf had an altercation with some
DSS operatives before he was attacked on January 14, 2021.
It was learnt that Rauf was at work when he received a call
on his phone from a DSS official. He reportedly left the police station for
River Side where three DSS operatives pounced on him, hitting him in the head
with clubs until he fell into coma.
Rauf, a father of three, was reportedly taken to a private
hospital before he was transferred to UNIOSUN Teaching Hospital, Osogbo for
brain surgery. He died on Sunday, 24, January 2021.
His distraught father Rabiu Fawale has demanded that the DSS
officials be prosecuted for murder, noting that he reported the matter at the
DSS Command in Osogbo where his statement was documented but nothing was done.
