The Nigerian police have postponed the presentation of the alleged killers of the former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Vice-Marshal Alex Badeh, to the press.
The police said on Wednesday that they had arrested two suspects and that they would parade them on Thursday.
Speaking on the matter on Thursday, however, the force spokesman, DSP Jimoh Moshood, said the decision had been put on hold so as not to hurt the investigation process.
According to him, the decision to postpone the presentation of the suspects to the media is also not to prevent other members of the gang from escaping.
“It is of significance to note that the presentation of the two suspects and the three other gang members will not come up today so as not to jeopardise the ongoing investigation.
“The two suspects arrested actively participated in the killing of the former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh,” he said.
