The Commissioner of Police in Imo State, Taiwo Lakanu, said they have intensified investigation into the murder of ASP Celestine Onwumere.
Lakanu, who spoke to newsmen in Owerri on Thursday, added that those behind the murder would soon be exposed.
Lekanu said: “There would be no hiding place for the murderers.
“They would be tracked down and brought to book.
“The killers of the officer have stepped on the lion’s tail.
“We have stepped up our investigation into the killing with a view to bringing the perpetrators of the crime and their accomplices to book.”
Onwumere, who would have retired in December 2016, was killed at the premises of Mbieri Police Station by gunmen last week.
