Villagers have accused troops of the Nigerian army of killing a man and a young woman, who were returning home after depositing their mother’s corpse in the mortuary.
The incident occurred in Akwa-Etiti, Idemili South, Anambra State.
It was alleged that the soldiers chased the siblings from Nnewi to Akwa-Etiti, because the car they drove in had tinted glasses.
It was gathered that the security operatives fired shots at the vehicle, killing the two occupants.
In a video of the scene shared on social media, members of the community could be heard lamenting, as they called the name of the man.
The body of the young lady could also be seen lying dead in the bush.
According to the villagers, the deceased had gone to Saint Francis mortuary to deposit their mother’s body before they were killed.
