In a statement on Monday signed by the Force Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, directed the immediate detention of the officers involved in the murder and complete investigation into the matter.

“The Inspector General of Police has directed the Commissioner of Police, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja to immediately detain and personally carry out a thorough investigation of policemen involved in the incident that resulted in the death of Miss Anita Akapson at Katampe Extension, Abuja on the night of Saturday, 13th October, 2018; and bring the perpetrators to justice.
