A yet-to-be-identified man, who impersonated one of the policemen attached to the Idimu Police Station has stolen the mobile phone of an artisan, Kehinde Adesina, on the premises of the station in the Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos State.
While at the station, our correspondent observed the female officers at the counter demanding N3000 before allowing Adeshina to write a statement for an investigation to commence on the matter.
“He said the man was his brother. It was when he brought the recharge card that I got to know that he was not. That was why we gave him the car key and we also told him to get the pack of the phone so that we can track it,” Supol Peter said. She said, “It did not happen in this station alone. It also happened in some police stations around. This is not the first time. The phone of this woman sitting here was also stolen here on this table.”
