The Lagos State Police Command PRO, Benjamin Hundeyin has revealed that the police officers filmed harassing corps members in Surulere, Lagos State, are being interrogated.
He made this known on X while reacting to a video showing uniformed officers engaging in a heated exchange with corps members.
The X user who shared the video also alleged that the officers extorted N1 million from the corps members (read here).
Reacting, Hundeyin wrote on X: “They are men of Area C, Surulere. The Area Commander has been contacted.
“The men have been identified. They are being interrogated.
“However, we need more than a verbal accusation. Kindly tell us more. The spy camera would have captured the exchange of money too, be it cash or transfer. Give us something to work it. Update as regards the outcome of the ongoing interrogation will be made available.”
