Mr. Lawal Pedro (SAN), the Lagos State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice announced on Monday that the toxicology report and other forensic tests completed in the United States on the late musician, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, alias Mohbad, have been released.

He stated that the autopsy report is presently with both the Lagos State Pathologist and the coroner magistrate.

Pedro stated this during a press conference at the Ministry of Justice Conference Room in Alausa, Ikeja, where he was taking questions from journalists on the impending strategic stakeholders' meeting and commemoration of his first year in office.

He said, “On the Mohbad case, yes, I agree there has been a delay, and the delay is caused by time taken for investigation.

“Forensic, analysis, toxicology, all these are part of the investigation. Full proof investigation that can lead at least to conviction in a case that is presented before the courts.”

The Attorney General indicated that the forensic examination would not have been conducted in the United States if the Lagos DNA and Forensic Centre had not been destroyed during the #EndSARS protest in October 2020.

Speaking on the case of a female lawyer, Otike-Odibi, who murdered her lawyer husband, Symphorosa Otike-Odibi, and severed his manhood, the AG stated that the matter was delayed because the case file was among the documents burned when the Igbosere High Court was burned by EndSARS protesters in 2020.
