Tiger Base Impunity: Police Ignore DPP’s Advice, Fail to Arraign Officers Over Levi Opara’s Death
Nearly two years after the death of businessman Levi Opara in police custody, Nigerian authorities have yet to arraign two Tiger Base officers despite a clear directive from the Imo State Director of Public Prosecutions recommending charges of conspiracy and murder. Medical evidence and an autopsy report showed multiple injuries on Opara’s body, contradicting police claims that he was healthy at the time of arrest. Human rights advocates and Opara’s family say the delay reflects systemic police impunity and undermines public trust in justice.
