Two police officers from the Lagos Police Command have been detained following the death of a civilian during an unauthorized operation they participated in.
According to SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the Command’s spokesperson, the officers, whose identities were not disclosed, were part of the State Taskforce. They engaged in the illegal operation on Wednesday, June 19, accompanied by civilians. The situation escalated when they encountered opposition from motorcycle riders, leading to the tragic death of one civilian.
Hundeyin said;
“While disciplinary actions have commenced on the already detained police officers, search is on for their civilian accomplices. Investigations have commenced to identify, arrest and prosecute the perpetrators of this dastardly act.”
