Lawyer, Two Others Arrested over Murder of K’ba Police


By Doh Bertrand Nua in Kumba
A Kumba-based lawyer and two other persons are now under custody at the Kumba Central Police Station for question, after they were arrested in connection to the killing of a Police Superintendent recently, The Median has learned.
            Barrister Njeck Henry Teboh and the two other persons whose names we couldn’t immediately get were kept in custody after being invited to give their statements on the circumstances leading to the killing  of commissioner Tsimi. News of Njeck’s detention and the two other persons filtered to the public on Tuesday July 10.
            On Wednesday, July 11, this reporter spotted some colleagues of the lawyer at the Police station. They said they came to pay him a visit and to find out why he was there. But at the time of filing this report on Saturday, we could not independently confirm if the Barrister was still in custody or not.

            Reports we gathered have it that Barrister Njeck is a friend to the deceased Commissioner and both are members of the Nkamlikum veteran football club. Reports we couldn’t confirm have it that Barr Njeck and the two others were in the company of ‘commissaire’Tsimi while unknown gunmen surface and shot him dead.
            It should be recalled that Commissioner Tsimi was shot dead late Sunday evening July 8, 2018 around the junction leading to CCAS Kumba beside a popular drinking spot in the area
            Reports still to be confirmed by the Kumba Police have it that the murderers of CommissaireTsimi were on Monday 9 July 2018 killed in the course of a crossfire that ensued between soldiers and separatist gunmen. The reports said the commisioner’s pistol that was confiscated by his killers was retrieved.
