The suspects, who allegedly murdered the corps member after collecting ransom of N1.5 million for his release, are already facing charges at a magistrate court in Port Harcourt.

A brother of the deceased, Charles Worlu, said all the family wanted was justice.

The corps member was serving in Imo State before his abduction at Rumuokoro roundabout in Obio Akpor local government area of Rivers State.
