Next Chapter In ALUU 4 Murder Case As Court Admits Video Evidence

Port Harcourt — A new chapter has been opened in the gruesome case of four young UNIPORT students' murder in Omoukiri-Aluu.

A Youtube video evidence of the murder has been admitted  as evidence by a Rivers State High Court sitting in Port Harcourt as an exhibit in the ongoing trial of the suspected culprits.
In his ruling, the trial judge Justice Latan Nyordee admitted the video, following defence counsel's questioning its admissibility.
The video footage was tendered by the prosecution, but the defence argued that the video did not originate from the police.
Justice Nyordee, in his ruling, noted that the tendered video footage, irrespective of its source, was bound to be admitted as exhibit to the extent of its relevance to the trial as overriding every other consideration.
