Moses Akatugba was sentenced to death for a
crime he says he didn’t commit. He was just 16
when he was arrested, and was tortured before
being forced to sign a confession. He was just 16 when he was arrested in 2005 for
armed robbery, and says he was beaten repeatedly
by police officers with machetes and batons. He told Amnesty that they tied him and hung him
up for several hours, and then used pliers to pull
out his toe and finger nails. He was then forced to
sign two pre-written confessions. Moses was just a boy when he was arrested. What’s
more, under international law, he should not have
been sentenced to death, as he was a child at the
time of the crime. On 1 October 2014 the Governor of the Niger Delta
responded to pressure from Amnesty supporters
and said he is looking into this case. We're one step
closer to justice for Moses – so let's push the
Governor of Delta State to honour his commitment today.
