A geophysicist at a company in the Lekki
area of Lagos, Mr. Sunday Alabi, says his younger brother, Tope, and
brother-in-law, Wale, narrowly escaped being killed by some overzealous
policemen attached to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the state police
command.
He stated that the policemen, who
arrested and tortured him and other victims on August 28, had raided
their area, Atunise Street, Isheri-Olowora.
He said the policemen, numbered about six, shot sporadically into the air and threatened to gun them down.
Alabi added that they were later thrown
into a cell in the command till the following day and were released
after paying N20,000 bribe.
The geophysicist explained that trouble
started around 8pm on the fateful Friday after he sent his
brother-in-law to buy foodstuffs for the family’s breakfast the
following day.
