Family Lament ‘Illegal Detention’ Of Their Son By Nigerian Anti-Narcotics Agency, NDLEA In Ondo, Allege Extortion By OfficialsThe family of Daniel Morris in Akure, Ondo State have decried the alleged arrest and detention of their son, Daniel Abass by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency for committing no offence.
"The officers arrested my son as a suspect despite pleading his innocence, but it is totally understandable because he's the suspect. I was notified that day the arrest happened but I couldn't take any step because the raid happened in the night." He stated further that"when I visited my wife's shop in the night, I saw an NDLEA officer in the neighbourhood discussing with the owner of the weed. I approached him and told the guy who came to meet you today told you that the bag of weed belongs to him, why haven't you arrested him? That NDLEA officer then called the man and arrested him. Upon interrogation, he agreed and wrote even in his statement that the bag of weed belongs to him.
The family, however, queried"what will an NDLEA officer be doing with a hardened criminal in the night? How did he get a criminal number and why were they asking for N300,000 after discovering that my son is innocent of any crime? I came to the conclusion that the NDLEA officer used that guy to plant weed into people's houses and shops just to implicate them. I recorded all the conversation.
