The suspended assistant superintendent of police, Drambi Vandi has pleaded not guilty to the murder of Lagos-based female lawyer, Bolanle Raheem.
The suspended cop was arraigned on one count of murder before the Lagos State High Court, Tafawa Balewa Square annex, on Monday. After the charge sheet was read to him, Vandi pleaded not guilty to the murder charge.
Raheem was allegedly shot dead by the suspect in the Ajah area of Lagos on Christmas Day. She was returning home from an outing with her family when she was shot.
Raheem’s death sparked outrage from many persons and groups in the country, as they condemned what they described as extrajudicial killing.
However, Vandi was arrested and appeared before Chief Magistrate C.A. Adedayo on December 30, 2022, a day after the Police Service Commission approved his suspension.
