“The Service is calling on the general public to debunk and discountenance this falsehood which is a figment of the author’s imagination.
“The service wishes to inform the public that the said Sheikh, as well as other inmates of custodial centres in the state, are hale and hearty. The Service prioritizes the medical and health welfare of all inmates.” The statement said.
