Lagos Rearraigns Kidnap Kingpin Evans Over Police Officers’ Killing!

Reported by Marian Opeyemi Fasesan | Sele Media Africa

Notorious kidnap kingpin Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, popularly known as Evans, has been re-arraigned by the Lagos State Government over the alleged murder of two police officers during one of his criminal operations.

Key Details:

• The fresh charges were filed at the Lagos High Court sitting in Tafawa Balewa Square.
• Evans and his co-defendant allegedly killed the officers during a failed 2007 kidnap attempt.
• The case had previously stalled due to legal technicalities but has now resumed with amended charges.

Why It Matters:

• Evans is already serving life imprisonment for other kidnapping-related crimes.
• This case adds a murder charge, potentially increasing his sentence if found guilty.
