It was a sad day for the Delta police police command as the Division Police Officer (DPO) and Division Crime Officer (DCO) were beaten to blood by a self-crowned activist in what looked like a dramatic stage play.
The incident began when a supposed human rights activist wearing lawyer’s robe stormed the division C of Delta police command seeking for the release of two suspected cultists held over a case of murder.
Entering the police station, he was challenged by Divisional Police Officer (DPO) CSP Aniete Uyo who put his identity on integrity test, leading the brawl between the two where the DPO was beaten, his uniform ripped off and office vandalised.
The Divisional Crime Officer trying to intervene was also assaulted. He was wounded in the head and rushed to the hospital for medical treatment.
Addressing the issue before the press, the commissioner of police, Mustafa, said: “The supposed activist and three other persons, who carried out the attack on the policemen have been arrested.
"We are going to arraign them in court for the incident; you cannot invade a police station and fight our officers in that way.”
Meanwhile, it was a bad day for the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) as two of its officers were gunned down by a bandit suspected to be thieves.
The policemen manning Nnamdi Azikiwe bypass in Kaduna met their untimely death on Wednesday, October 17, upon being sighted by the gunmen who shot at them from a close range.
Kaduna police command said it was aware of the saddening incident, and all hands had been put on deck to ensure that the culprit face the consequences of their action.
