The deceased was fatally shot by an officer from the same Ajiwe Police Station Vandi was attached to.

Hundeyin explained he was yet to be arraigned because his dismissal order has not been released.

He confirmed the officer has been in detention at the SCID while the investigation is being wrapped up.

“Once his dismissal order comes out, he will be charged to court immediately”, the PRO hinted.

On Tuesday, Lagos State Government announced its readiness to take over the prosecution of ASP Vandi.
