View the photos when you continue but ***VIEWERS DISCRETION IS ADVISED***

The traditional ruler of Amansea said the community had never witnessed such a gory sight before, while the Commissioner of Police in the state said the dead bodies remained a mystery as there had been no communal clash in Enugu or Anambra where many people were killed. He said investigations are ongoing...
The State Governor Peter Obi has cut short his trip abroad and is expected back today.
Residents of Amansea in Awka, Anambra State woke up yesterday morning Saturday January 19th to a horrifying sight; 40 dead bodies floating in a River in their community. People from the community and some neighbouring ones besieged the Ezu river yesterday to catch a glimpse of the dead bodies. The river is at the boundary between Enugu and Anambra states and the dead bodies were found at the old Enugu-Onitsha road axis of the river.
The corpses whose identities were unknown, were suspected to have been dumped in the river Friday night by unknown persons.

"It is disappointing to learn mass burial has already taken place without efforts made to determine their identity and cause of death or to unravel the Myths surrounding the dumping of over 50 lifeless bodies at the Ezu River Ugwuoba , Enugu state, a boundary town to Amansea, Awka North Anambra state. If we lack the expertise to investigate the death, why not involve international organisation?"
Continuing he said; "I remember that when the headless and limbless body of a five or six-year-old child, was found near Tower Bridge, London in September 2001, the UK police spent millions of pounds to investigate. When Forensic tests, involving samples taken from the bones, linked the boy to West Africa and subsequently to Nigeria, Officers investigating the case visited Nigeria in search of his roots. Now more than 50 unidentified corpses discovered and we rush to give them mass burial? Sad! Sad!! Sad!!!"
Shocking Discovery Of Possible Victims Of SARS Extra-judicial Killings:
In a Public Statement By The Intersociety Nigeria, dated 21 January 2013 and signed, their Chairman, Emeka Umeagbalasi, the group noted for their meticulous investigative reports said: "IGP Abubakar should also investigate thoroughly and conclusively the recent shocking discovery of dozens of corpses inside the Amansea (Ezu) River, in Awka, Anambra State by the local residents on Saturday, January 19, 2013. The River is located between the borders of Anambra and Enugu States. Since there is no known intra and inter communal violence or conflict in the area, it is most likely that the corpses are victims of extra-judicial killings by SARS (Special Anti Robbery Squad) operatives in Anambra State. More so when little or nothing is heard of the prosecution, conviction or acquittal of those arrested for their involvement in violent crimes such as armed robbery, kidnapping and culpable murder, particularly after they have been paraded. They are rarely arraigned and prosecuted in courts. In November 2005, over 20 detained citizens were massacred by the Awka CPS SARS and dumped in the area (Agu-Awka). Therefore, every logical indication points in the direction of the Anambra State SARS and the Anti Kidnap squads as the source of the dead bodies. The IGP should order that the corpses be pathologically investigated to determine their style of killing and circumstances under which they were killed."
