Human Rights lawyer, Femi Falana, said more than 70 corpses of persons killed in Lagos during the #EndSARS protests are in mortuary.
Falana stated this in his capacity as the interim Chairman, Alliance on Surviving COVID-19 and Beyond, in an interview he granted Punchng.com.
“About 98 dead bodies were dumped in various mortuaries out of which three were dumped there on October 20. However, less than 20 relatives have shown up at the mortuaries to identify their loved ones and take them for burial.
“Investigations by ASCARB show that people are quietly mourning their dead and some are afraid. Others haven’t confirmed that they lost anybody. So far, less than 20 relatives have come to identify their loved ones. This is over a month after the announcement,” he said.
Recall that the State Chief Coroner, Mojisola Dada, in a public announcement in November, called on people whose relatives were missing to visit the Lagos State Teaching Hospital to check if they were among unclaimed corpses in the mortuary.
