Police arrest man for alleged culpable homicide in Kano firm
The Police in Kano State have arrested one James Ismail for allegedly committing culpable homicide at Fas Agro Sacks Company Sharada in the Gwale Local Government Area of the state.
The state’s Commissioner of Police, Hussaini Gumel, told journalists on the telephone on Sunday that the crime was committed at a factory in Sharada.
He said that at about 8:30 a.m., a distress call was received that there was a problem at Fas Agro Sacks Company.
He explained that on receiving the report, the Divisional Police Officer from Sharada led a team to the scene and discovered it was a fight between two employees of the company–Tukur Adamu, 32, and James Ismail, 32.
He said during the fight, Tukur Adamu fell and was rushed to the hospital where he was confirmed dead by a medical doctor.
He said, “The incident shook the company and indeed the entire residents and our officers worked tirelessly to identify and get the assailant, James Ismail arrested. As a result of the incident, thugs mobilised in large numbers took advantage of the situation and started looting people’s property and attempted to set the company ablaze. We have so far arrested 13 thugs. This arrest is a testament to our unwavering commitment to protecting the sanctity of life and bringing justice to those affected by such heinous acts.”
He said that the suspect would be thoroughly investigated and charged to court, assuring that justice would prevail.
