The Nigeria Police Force on Thursday said it has successfully completed an autopsy on Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

SP Benjamin Hundeyin, Command’s spokesman said that the autopsy has commenced to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death of the youngster.

The job of the team is “to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death of the victim, identify witnesses, culprits if any and any person that will be helpful to the investigative process and deploy processes and other technological tools to aid the investigative course in line with the relevant provisions of the Nigeria Constitution and the State Laws.”
