While I was reading comments in reply to IGP's statement on "Nigeria Police are the least corrupt Institution in Nigeria" From the replies, one statement was more frequently referred to: "they said bail is free, yet, they are collecting money for bail" This statement, made me uncomfortable. In my curiousity to find answers, I created this thread. Why do we pay Bail Money knowing fully well that, Bail is Free and not insist it must be free or simply asking the police to charge the case to court, if, they have a case? What are we afraid of? To find answers, I asked a few of my friends to get their reaction, and this is what they said. Abdul: though it's illegal. It's the shorter means to regain back freedom. It also helps to reduce or dictate the tune of the charge(s) Outnet: to create relationship with the police and to avoid being detained with hardened criminal or being molested by them. Tokong: because of the unhealthy state of their cells. Like in my place, if they take you court to and remanded in prison custody, automatically you're an ex-convict. Nobody cares if you're eventually found not guilty. Away-match:to make the police be lenient in the case. Also for the fear of torture by others inmates in the cells, fear of the court and going to jail. What is your take. Please share your thoughts and experiences to educate and inform. Thank you.

Food for thought
