InformationNG about 2 hours 1 mins read

Tanko Habila, father of the late Miss Mary Habila, the nurse who died at the residence of the Minister of Works, has petitioned the Inspector General of Police (IGP), demanding the release of her remains for burial.

Habila, who was accompanied by his wife, other family members and their lawyers, addressed the press shortly after submitting the petition at the Force Headquarters, Abuja, on Friday.

The senior Habila, who spoke after the family lawyer, expressed sadness that almost two weeks after his daughter’s demise, the Ebonyi State Police Command had refused to release her body for burial.

According to him, the family was not interested in an autopsy.

He said: “As we are standing here, somebody can fall and die. It has happened. All we want is her body to be buried.”
