US Toxicologist’s Report On Mohbad Has Been Received – Lagos AG

Date:

The toxicology report and other forensic analyses conducted on deceased Afrobeats star, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, in the United States, have been received in Nigeria.

This was confirmed by the Lagos State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr Lawal Pedro (SAN), on Monday, October 21.

Speaking at a press conference held at the Ministry of Justice Conference Room in Alausa, Ikeja, Pedro confirmed that the autopsy report is now with the Lagos State Pathologist and the coroner magistrate. The briefing was part of a series of events marking his first year in office and an upcoming strategic stakeholders’ meeting.

Pedro acknowledged delays in the investigation, attributing them to the time required for a thorough forensic process. “On the Mohbad case, yes, I agree there has been a delay, and the delay is caused by time taken for investigation,” he stated.

He further explained that comprehensive investigative procedures, including forensic analysis and toxicology, are essential for ensuring that any case brought to court has the necessary evidence to secure a conviction.

“Forensic, analysis, toxicology, all these are part of the investigation. Full-proof investigation that can lead at least to conviction in a case that is presented before the courts,” Pedro said.

The Attorney General also clarified that the toxicology examination had to be conducted in the United States due to the destruction of the Lagos DNA and Forensic Centre during the #EndSARS protests of October 2020.
