He told the court that the injury in his hands is as a result of police torture and not high sugar as alleged by the police.

He testified that the police officers did not include all the statement he made before them, as he could no longer write, due to the damage on his fingers caused by excessive torture.

He insisted that late Chima Ikwunado was a mechanic and not a generator repairer as claimed by the officers.

Our correspondent reports that the Presiding Judge, Justice Florence Fiberesima adjourned the case to 11th, 17th, and 26th of February for the continuation of trial.
