The Escort commander from the Government House, Asaba, was sent to bring their corpses and deposit them in a mortuary in Asaba,” a Government House source said.The Police Public Relations Officer, (PPRO), of Anambra State command, Ikenga Tochukeu, confirmed the incident.He disclosed that, “We got distress calls and we rushed to the scene of the incident. The policemen who were killed are from the Delta state command and were on transit as at the time of the incident. But I can assure you that the State commissioner of police, Anambra, is very poised to bring to book the criminals behind the dastardly act.”
