After being captured in a viral video assaulting a young man for refusing to unlock his iPhone in Enugu, three police officers have been paraded following their arrest.
Recall LIB reported earlier that the incident occurred on January 4 along Kenyatta Street, Uwani, Enugu.
The Enugu Police Commissioner Mr Ahmed Abdurahman, paraded the officers before newsmen on Monday January 6 and stated that a panel of inquiry has been constituted for their orderly room trial.
Abdurahman expressed his disturbance at the video and said, “After the panel’s three days’ work, we will look into the panel’s findings and recommendation. Then, they will definitely face orderly room trial and after all these we know what level of punishment will be meted on them.”
He also added, “The members of the public should know that the Nigeria Police under the present IG cannot condone and shield such uncivilized characters. Nigerians should know that the negative action of the erring personnel is unprofessional and does not in any way reflect the image and attitude of the Nigeria Police. We are here to police with human face and some level of decorum and civility.”
It was further gathered that the officers included two Non-Commissioned Officers (NCO) and one police constable.
