33 Arrested For Beating Policemen; 6 Policemen Arrested For Rape, Murder Attempt by Wobegist: 10:03am On Aug 15, 2017
Command said on Monday, that 33 suspects have been arrested in connection with jungle justice. The state Police Commissioner, Fatai Owoseni said security forces would not hesitate to arrest, prosecute anyone who wants to turn the state into Banana Republic.

According to him, there was no justification for residents to mete out any form of punishment on any suspect without recourse to the rule of law.

He said: “On August 8, a distress call was received at Ijaiye Ojokoro Police Station that some people suspected to be ritualists/kidnappers were seen hiding in a canal at Obadeyi Bus Stop, along Lagos/Abeokuta Expressway.

The DPO led a team of policemen to the spot and on getting there, they met a large violent crowd trying to lynch the so called suspects. As the policemen were trying to rescue the alleged suspects, the crowd descended on them, beating and throwing stones at them.”

Owoseni said six policemen were arrested for extortion, attempted murder and defilement, adding that they would be prosecuted. Those arrested for extortion and armed robbery are – Sergeants Benjamin Oboh, Onyenedu Kennedy and Monday Ekhigato.

One Sergeant Sylvanus Emeche was nabbed for attempted murder after shooting a woman, Mrs. Oluchi Okafor and her children on July 24, at Ajao Estate.

shocked

These ones are unfortunate.
There's no crime in this country you can't be freed off the hook from if you can throw some money around.

They probably couldn't afford to give their IPO good bail money.

For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

A good step if you ask me, jungle justice in Nigeria is the people taking out their frustration on whosoever they believe is the suspect(s).

The extortionist policemen should all be sentenced to jail, stripped unclad and flogged 80million lashes of koboko laden with chilly pepper for bringing the already battered image of the police force to disrepute sad
