State Criminal Investigation Department of the Lagos State Police Command, Panti, has arrested Tunde Williams, whose 22-year-old ‘houseboy,’ Onyeka Raphael, was found dead in the swimming pool of Williams’ house on

Saturday.

Spokesperson of the command, Ngozi Braide, told our correspondent on Wednesday, that the case was transferred to the SCID on Wednesday.

The police had earlier stated that Williams was not cooperating.

A source at the homicide unit of the SCID, said Williams, a retired accountant, had been taken into custody on Wednesday while a search was conducted on his home.

“A single-barrelled gun was found in the house and there is no evidence suggesting that the gun was legally owned,” the source said.

Raphael was found at the bottom of the swimming pool of the house on Babatunde Asimi Street, Ogudu GRA, Lagos, in which he worked as a househelp.

The deceased was said to be an indigene of Umunede in Ika Local Government Area of Delta State.
