Court Hearing For Kaduna Man Assaulted By Turkish Boss Scheduled For December 10th 2024
The court hearing between Mr. Emmanuel Thompson and his former boss, a Turkish national, has been scheduled for December 10th 2024.
This was revealed to KADUNA POLITICAL AFFAIRS by Mr. Daniel Ejembi, the founder of Eagle Brain, a human rights organization championing Mr. Thompson's case.
Mr. Thompson, a former employee of Motech Company, an affiliate of the NNPC in Kaduna, alleged that he was assaulted by his project manager, a Turkish national, after demanding his final salary following his dismissal.
He claimed that during the confrontation, the manager strucked him with a helmet, causing an eye injury that impaired his vision.
Additionally, he alleged that other staff loyal to the Turkish boss joined in beating him severely.
Despite his visible injuries, Mr. Thompson stated that the company refused to cover his medical expenses. Instead, he claimed the Turkish manager directed security personnel to forcibly remove him from the company's premises and have him detained.
He said upon his release, DSS personnel allegedly gave him 500 Naira and instructed him to remain silent about the incident.
Seeking justice, Mr. Thompson reached out to Eagle Brain Human Rights Organization, which took up his case.
The organization, alongside sympathizers, staged protests demanding accountability.
According to the Founder of Eagle Brain, Mr. Ejembi, an agreement was initially reached between them and the company on how to compensate the victim. However, when the company failed to honor the terms, legal action was initiated.
The court has now scheduled the case for its first hearing on December 10th 2024.
