The Anambra State Police Command says the remains of Nollywood star, John Paul Odonwodo, popularly called Junior Pope, were not among those buried by the bank of the Anam River.

The Commandโ€™s spokesman, SP Ikenga Tochukwu, made the clarification on Sunday, stating that only three of the deceased families agreed that the victims be buried by the riverside.

He noted that after the burial of the three, one of the families came back to exhume the remains of their daughter for a befitting burial in her country home.

Ikenga added that the corpse of Junior Pope was deposited at a morgue.

โ€œThe Command, on an inquiry about the unconfirmed information that the recovered bodies including Junior Pope were buried by the Riverside where the boat accident happened, discovered that three of the deceased families accepted the victims should be buried beside the river.

โ€œBut later, the family of one of the victims decided to exhume the body to be given a proper burial in her state while the other two were still buried there.

โ€œAlso, Junior Pope and one other are still in the morgue and await the deceased familiesโ€™ funeral arrangements,โ€ he said.

The PPRO further stated that the Command is still investigating the unfortunate incident.

He said, โ€œThe producer of the movie and the two boat driversโ€™ statements have been obtained, and other necessary actions/moves already emplaced by the operatives as directed by the Commissioner of Police to determine the criminal liability of any person, if any, in the mishap.โ€
