Paul Hezekiah, a final year student of computer engineering, was allegedly shot at close range by a DSS official, during a raid on a market known as GSM Plaza, where mobile phones are sold.
His corpse was reportedly dumped in a van and taken away by the DSS.
Speaking on the development, the Plateau state police commissioner, Mr. Adekunle Oladunjoye said he is surprised that the DSS has not handed the officer over to his team for questioning.
Oladunjoye said “The case was reported at the ‘A’ Division and we had expected DSS to hand the suspect over to the police since it became a public knowledge. But I have asked the CID to formally write to DSS to release the suspect to us for questioning.”
The police commissioner also said his men will write an official letter to the DSS requesting that the suspect be handed over for questioning.
There has been massive public outcry following the death of Hezekiah, who reportedly showed up at work for the first time, to commence his compulsory three month Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme.
