IG lauds officers over arrest of UK murder suspect

The Inspector-General of Police, Suleiman Abba, has commended Police detectives for the arrest of a wanted murder suspect in the United Kingdom, Jeffery Azuka Okafor, who fled to Nigeria after the alleged murder of Carl Beatson Asiedu on August 1, 2009 in London.

A statement by Force Public Relations Officer, CP Emmanuel Ojukwu, said Azuka Okafor, 23, was arrested on September 23 in Asaba, Delta State, after a diligent search.

It said: “The IGP particularly praised the high level of professionalism displayed by the Police operatives as well as the effective deployment of the force’s high-tech equipment in tracking the suspect.”

It said despite the fugitive’s frequent change of identity and location, the operatives were still able to keep tab on him without raising any suspicion.

“All the necessary required procedures to enable the handover of the fugitive to the UK authorities have already been concluded,” it added.

He assured the international law enforcement community that Nigeria Police Force would apprehend any fugitive on request and turned such over accordingly.
