Reports say the DSS official put Hezekiah’s corpse in a van and drove away.

The Plateau State police commissioner,Mr. Adekunle Oladunjoye, also confirmed that the student was killed by a DSS officer on ‘assignment.’

The DSS have been lashed severally, for disobeying court orders, in the case of Sambo Dasuki, and most recently, in Ekiti state, where its men stormed the hallowed chambers of the state House of Assembly, and allegedly arrested a lawmaker.
