Sam Larry
Lagos State Police Command has arrested controversial Lagos socialite, Balogun Eletu, aka Sam Larry, for an ongoing investigation into the circumstances leading to the death of the singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad.
The Command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the development on Thursday night.
“Yes, Balogun Eletu aka Sam Larry is now in our custody. He is assisting with the ongoing investigations,” Hundeyin was quoted to have said in an interview with THE PUNCH.
The police had earlier invited Sam Larry and singer, Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley, for questioning over Mohbad’s demise.
The police had, last week, also confirmed that pathologists had concluded the autopsy conducted on Mohbad, while they awaited the result.
He said, “Autopsy has been concluded. Awaiting results.”
This development followed the exhumation of Mohbad by a combined team of the Nigeria Police Force and health officials.
The police had also arrested the nurse who reportedly injected the deceased singer before his demise on Tuesday, September 12.
