ESAT News  September 5, 2013

Inspector Meteku, a senior member of Bahir Dar Police, has been killed on a hit and run car accident near the area routinely known as Woreda Hulet yesterday morning.  The killers have not been apprehended so far. Chief Inspector Wubetu, who is investigating the killing, said to ESAT that the cause is being investigated.  Asked if he was killed by people whom he had abused, the Inspector said although the earlier investigations do not indicate foul play, it will be definitively known once the investigation is completed.

Residents of Kebele 13 have said that the dead Police Inspector had been committing several human rights abuses and was killed by people who took the brunt of his actions.
