An Abuja-based businessman, Damilola Adenuga, has accused some cops attached to the Kubwa Police Station, Abuja, of allegedly assaulting and extorting him.
learnt that Adenuga was on his way to a pharmacy to get a drug on Friday, August 7, 2020, when he was accosted around 7pm by two policemen in mufti.
He stated, “I was going to the pharmacy to buy malaria drugs when some men approached me and started harassing me. I was afraid because I thought they were going to kidnap me. I tried to raise the alarm, but one of them told me to keep quiet and pulled out his ID card. “The cops drove to a pub and left me inside the vehicle. I begged one of them to remove the handcuffs on my hands, because I was not feeling well, but the officer ignored me. I had to put my hands out of the window of the vehicle to draw the attention of passers-by and one of the waitresses at the pub saw me and proceeded to ask the cops why they apprehended me, but they told her that I didn’t do anything but they could not release me until their boss gave them the go ahead.
