Lazurus, come from the dead

A crime report on a warrant asking some policemen to appear in court to give deposition in a murder case that landed on the news desk went logical up to several paragraphs. Just in the middle of the story, a paragraph quoted the man, who was killed seven years ago allegedly by the police, narrating what had happened just before he was killed. Interesting! He was no 'Lazurus, come from the dead,/ Come back to tell you all, ...' It made one of the editors, who rewrote the story, laugh heartily. The information was written in the first information report, he said.
