The Osun Police have reacted to Adedoyin’s ‘viral innocence audio’ over death of OAU student.
reports that the Osun State Police Command have reacted to the threading ‘viral innocence audio’ by the chairman of Hilton Hotel and Resort Ile-Ife Dr Ramon Adedoyin where he claimed innocence in the alleged ritual killing of Obafemi Awolowo University MBA student Timothy Adegoke.
Adedoyin has been detained since November 15, 2021 in connection with the killing of Adegoke in the hotel.
But on November 19, an audio went viral where he denied involvement in the death of the Adegoke and alleged ritual killing.
Reacting, in statement by Police Public Relation Officer SP Yemisi Opalola on Tuesday said: “On the issue of audio recording made by Dr. Rahman Adedoyin, the police was embarrassed with this development.
“On investigation, Dr. Rahman Adedoyin admitted being the author of the audio message. He said that he felt inclined to make it when some members of his staff were arrested by the police.
“He affirmed making it before he was arrested to defend himself when some people, especially the brother of the deceased was referring to him as a ritualist.
“He said it was made to clear himself because they have already maligned his character even without due process of law.
“He further stated that, he recorded the audio before his arrest by the police. His workers were arrested on the 11th and 12th November 2021 while he (Dr. Rahman Adedoyin) was subsequently arrested on the 15th November, 2021.
“He said he did not know whether the audio was released or when it was released until police told him about it since he has been incarcerated since 15th November, 2021 and doesn’t have access to his phone. Meanwhile, Police will stop at nothing at unraveling who actually release the audio.”
