“According to his account, he had reached home shortly after eight p.m. on the said night and sometime around ten p.m., he had exited his house to use the outside latrine where he was attacked by a dark complexion male person who inflicted the said injuries to him. He doesn’t have any suspect. I know that the police had two persons in custody who were interviewed and later released without charges; however, this investigation is still ongoing.”
