The police yesterday told an Ikeja high court that they were seeking justice in the death of Abimbola Ogbonna, who accused Ikechukwu \u2018IVD\u2019 Ogbonna, her husband, of threatening her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NAN reports that Fetuga Olatunji told Modupe Nicole-Clay, the judge, that Abimbola, before her death, wrote a petition to the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), zone 2 headquarters, Onikan, Lagos, against the auto dealer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ikechukwu is facing charges of involuntary manslaughter before the court. He is being prosecuted by the Lagos state government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IVD, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olatunji was led in evidence by Adeshola Bello, the counsel to the state government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He testified that the assistant inspector general of police (AIG) in charge of the zone had directed his team to investigate the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe AIG gave a directive to effect the arrest of the defendant (Ikechukwu) for attempted murder, threat to life, domestic violence and conduct likely to cause breach of peace,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During cross-examination by Victor Ogunde, the counsel to the defendant, the witness said, \u201cThe reason we didn\u2019t have a report is that the investigation on the case was not concluded by us\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nicole-Clay admitted in evidence, a number of documents tendered by prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They include a certified true copy of the petition and a copy of the signal to the Ajah police station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a suit marked LD\/21055C\/2023, the state government is accusing the auto dealer of involuntary manslaughter of his wife as well as causing her death by threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The government charged Ikechukwu with causing the death of Abimbola through a fire incident at their residence in the Lekki area of the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The alleged offences are contrary to Sections 217 and 229 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bimbo died in October last year. A sister to Bimbo also accused IVD of killing his wife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In February, the car dealer was remanded by the state magistrate court in Ebute Meta in a judgment delivered by Adebayo Kafayat Tella.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
