A trigger-happy policeman popularly known as Saheed SARS allegedly shot a corps member identified as Iyanda Damilola to death in Ogbomoso Local Government Area of Oyo State on Tuesday.
It was gathered that Saheed is an operative of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Oyo State Police Command.
Saheed is widely recognised by the students of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso for assaults, most especially “Yahoo boys”.
In 2020, he was heavily criticised on social media platforms after he reportedly posed with a white Mercedez Benz car he claimed to have bought.
The deceased’s brother, Iyanda Oluwafemi, who graduated from LAUTECH, on Monday, said he sustained wounds from bullets shot by Saheed.
Speaking with our correspondent, Oluwafemi, a graduate of Accounting and Management Sciences from the institution, said the deceased was his brother and that he had attended his convocation, after which they headed for an after-party the same day where he was shot dead by the trigger-happy cop.
According to him, the late Damilola was serving in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
