The Anambra State Police Command and the Rule of Law and Accountability Advocacy Centre have locked horns over the allegation of a N600,000 bribe paid to secure the freedom of the sister of a wanted suspect.
The victim, identified as Ms Nwosu Chikamso Jennifer, was reportedly arrested in connection with an ongoing investigation into cult-related killings in Awka.
South-East PUNCH gathered that Jennifer was arrested on August 31, 2026, allegedly in relation to police investigations involving her brother, Nwosu Kenechukwu, who was wanted in connection with an alleged murder case.
According to her account to RULAAC, she was detained for four days and repeatedly required to produce her brother, adding that she eventually paid N600,000 on September 3, 2026, before she was released on “administrative bail”.
She said no receipt was issued for the money, alleging that her mobile telephone was seized without a seizure form or property receipt.
