Reasons Why 3 Female Police Officers Beaten, Stripped Naked In Public In Edo
on
According to reports, three female police officers who went to make an arrest at Oregbeni quarters in Ikpoba-Okha local government area of Edo State were on Wednesday beaten and stripped naked in public.
The police officers were said to have been invited by a landlady in the area to arrest one of her tenants when trouble started. The three officers are currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital in the state.
The trouble was said to have started when the police officers said the tenant must follow them to the station immediately, but she (the tenant) refused and said she must take her bath before following them.
The argument then led to a confrontation and other residents in the area joined the tenant to beat and strip the police officers.
The landlady, Mrs. Okebuse while narrating what happened, said she invited the police because she had given the tenants quit notice but refused to pack out.
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.”
However, an eyewitness who pleaded anonymity said the landlady was in the habit of using the 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, confirmed the incident.
He said he was disappointed at the attack, but assured that the police would not take the case lightly, adding that those who attacked the officers would be made to face the full wrath of the law.
He also said some suspects have been arrested and charged to court.
