Lagos AG: US Toxicologist’s Report on Mohbad Has Been Received
On Monday, October 21, Mr. Lawal Pedro (SAN), the Lagos State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, announced that the toxicology report and other forensic analyses conducted in the United States regarding the late singer Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, widely known as Mohbad, have been received.
During a press conference 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.
This briefing was part of a series of events celebrating his first year in office and an upcoming strategic stakeholders’ meeting.
Pedro acknowledged that there have been delays in the investigation, attributing them to the necessary time for a comprehensive 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 said.
He further explained that thorough investigative procedures, including forensic analysis and toxicology, are crucial for ensuring that any case presented in court has the necessary evidence to achieve 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 needed to be carried out in the United States because the Lagos DNA and Forensic Centre was damaged during the #EndSARS protests in October 2020.
