Three female police officers who went to make an arrest at Oregbeni quarters in Ikpoba-Okha local government area of Edo State were today beaten and stripped naked. And according to TheNation, the police officers are currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital.

They were invited by a landlady in the area to arrest one of her tenants when a fracas ensued. Trouble started when the tenant insisted on taking her bath before going to the police station but the police officers said she should follow them. A fracas ensued and other residents in the area joined the tenant
to beat and strip the police officers.

The landlady who gave her name as Mrs. Okebuse said she invited the police because she had given the tenants quit notice. She said:
“When the police came to make arrest, they started fighting the police. I ran for my life and hid in the other compound.”
An eyewitness said the landlady uses police to harass her tenants.
“The woman was taking her bath and the police officers refused to allow the woman to take her bath,” the eyewitness said.
The state’s Police Commissioner, Foluso Adebanjo, who expressed disappointment at the attack, said the police would not take the attack lightly. Adebanjo said the attackers would be made to face the full wrath of the law. He said suspects arrested have already been charged to court.

That is lawlessness. of the highest order

When the police start acting like police not policy then people will give them respect. When its ordinary people they know what to say elite we won't hear them.

That woman would be a nightmare to have as tenant, I mean Police came to arrest you and you want to go take your bathe and apply make-up, where in the world is that practised?

You use court order and balif to enforce quit notice and not some policemen.

Although I do not in any way support the apparent misuse of the police officers in this case, which would not involve the police in a developed country, the manner in which nearly all mob attacks on female victims in Nigeria and other third world countries invariably involve the stripping of the female victims naked is utterly reprehensible.

Every mob attack is in itself barbaric enough, and for the perpetrators to accompany it with a bestial penchant for subjecting their female victims to the additional indignity of public unclothedness makes it even more brutish and primitive.

An eyewitness said the landlady uses police to harass her tenants.
“The woman was taking her bath and the police officers refused to allow the woman to take her bath,” the eyewitness said.

So why will the Police not allow a lady who was taking her bath to complete it? Will she go to the Station with soap on her body? It is wrong to fight the officers, but the landlady just want to make trouble and now the tenant has played into her hand.
