The Lagos State Police Command responded to the viral video on social media showing some Police Officers shooting two unarmed suspects who were arrested and already in their custody by arresting the guilty officers and charging them for murder.



According to the state PRO, Bala Elkana, their action is against the code of professional conduct and laws guiding how suspects in Police custody should be treated. The Policemen were identified as Inspector Fabiyi Omomayara, Sergeant Olaniyi Solomon, Sergeant Solomon Sunday and Corporal Aliyu Mukaila attached to Iba Division Patrol team.



The incident happened on 19/8/2019 at about 3.00pm, when Iba Police Station received a distress call from one Anugu Valentine that he was attacked by a group of armed men numbering about four on two motorcycles at Ipayi area, Iba and they dispossessed him of one iPhone max valued at #450: 000.



Acting on the information, the Divisional Police Officer Iba promptly deployed the Divisional Patrol team to the scene. Two of the armed robbers were arrested while two escaped. Two locally made pistols with six life cartridges and five expended cartridges were recovered. The gang is said to be notorious for series of robberies in Iba and environs. It was a well celebrated operation by the team as the suspects were gallantly arrested.

The team however, went extreme by killing the suspects who were already in their custody instead of taking them to the Police Station and allowing the normal process of investigation and prosecution to be initiated as stipulated under procedural laws.

That act of extra judicial killings falls short of police professional standards and cannot be condoned by the Command. The Commissioner of Police Lagos State, CP Zubairu Muazu mni has ordered a thorough investigation into the incident.

The Police Officers are currently subjected to internal disciplinary proceedings known as Orderly Room trial and if found culpable, they will be dismissed from the Force and will be handed over to the State Criminal Investigation Department Yaba for prosecution in the conventional Court. Members of the Public will be updated on the outcome of the investigation and trial.

good.. They want to turn Nigeria to Afganistan and Iraq.

I think this is the right step in the right direction! Why will some miscreants want to turn the country into a banana republic?

Pre-meditated murder.

I just wonder how they kill their fellow human,and still be able to sleep at night

Very good , those psychopaths must be taken of the force and streets for good ..Never seen people so indiscriminately happy about mindlessly killing .. one of the guys shot in the video is even a university graduate and serving corper named AY Slim

This is why I always pray for God's protection everyday.
This could happen to anyone weather innocent or guilty.

Imagine how human beings were wasted like chicken. Indeed this country is cursed. Its not about our leaders all the time, we are our own enemies.

So good to know they have been charged for murder.
They should face the consequence of their crime.

the police acted very bad, 2 suspects escaped instead of using the ones that were caught to aprehend the rest, they kill them.
dont u think that whosoever reported those boys to the police station is currently at risk? cause the other 2 might put it on him and come for a revenge attack.


these police men are too trigger happy, i was once accused of stealing a phone which the owner later found, i was trying to explain police crack gun say if i talk again them go shoot me, just like that.

The guy found the phone and the police said i should bail myself 10k last...lol just like that

Wasters of lives should be wasted as well. Bastard sons of devil. They killed their colleagues in crime.

some bastard nairalander are criminal.why can they condemned the act of the thief...

Can someone post the viral video of the extrajudicial killings please

It's either this police officers are banned from reading news or they cannot read.........


I believe it's the latter..... So, i would expect their officers to organise seminars, for all frontline police officers (attendance is compulsory or no salary)..........
