In a landmark verdict, Justice Ibironke Harrison of a Lagos High Court has handed down a death sentence to Police Officer Darambi Vandi for the fatal shooting of Lagos-based lawyer Mrs. Omobolanle Raheem on Christmas Day, 2022.
Recall that the tragic incident unfolded at Ajah Roundabout, along the Lekki-Expressway in Lagos State, when the defendant shot Mrs. Raheem in the chest, leading to her untimely demise.
The prosecution, skillfully led by Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice Mr. Moyosore Onigbanjo, presented a compelling case.
Their case featured 11 witnesses, including eight fellow police officers, as well as two eyewitnesses and a pathologist.
