The PUNCH said that there were hints that the police may conduct an autopsy to ascertain if Ifeanyi drowned in a swimming pool at his father’s home in the Banana Island neighborhood of Lagos State.
According to a reliable source who confirmed the development, it is common procedure for the police to do an autopsy in such a situation; however, the police will refrain from the procedure if the deceased’s family members object.
“Though the family members are not saying anything yet because they are still in shock but until anybody says stop, the standard procedure is to conduct an autopsy and we are going to follow that procedure just like in any case of death,” the source said.
The source went on to say that of the eight domestic employees questioned by police in connection with Ifeanyi’s death, the chef and nanny, whose job it was to care for the well-being of the three-year-old boy, were held for reasons including failing to respect their duty of care.JAMB Result
