The Presidency has hailed the court ruling which convicted
five dismissed ex-operatives of the disbanded Police Special Anti-Robbery Squad
(SARS).
Laolu Akande, a presidential spokesman, said the government
expects more of such a verdict.
“We expect more of such because indeed justice is the first
condition of humanity.
“We commend police authorities for earlier dismissing the convicts. Progress”, he tweeted.
A State High Court in Benin, Edo, on February 12, sentenced
a police constable to death.
He was found guilty of conspiring with four other constables
at large, to kill a car dealer in 2015.
The four other dismissed constables were also convicted but
not sentenced due to their absence.
