A 40-year-old man, Olakunle Sodeinde, has been declared wanted after escaping from police custody.
Sodeinde was arrested on Saturday, September 8, after police rescued him from a mob attack. He was caught engaging in a same-sex relationship.
Reports indicate that Sodeinde was apprehended at a nightclub in Lagos during a party when a mob attacked him before he was handed over to law enforcement. It was also revealed that his same-sex partner, identified as Tunde Bolaji, was found dead the following day.
A police source stated that Sodeinde escaped from custody while receiving treatment at a hospital for injuries sustained during the incident.
“The man has been declared wanted; we are actively looking for him. He ran away from the hospital while in police custody after he was caught engaging in inappropriate conduct with another man, which is forbidden,” the source said.
“We discovered the remains of his partner the next day by the roadside, and he has been identified as Tunde Bolaji.”
The police source noted that the investigation is ongoing, and efforts to locate Sodeinde have been intensified.
