Kwara CP Warns Officers Against Searching People’s Phones.
The Kwara State Commissioner of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has warned officers against searching people’s phone with the intent of extorting money, stressing it’s unethical for them to do so.
“It’s unethical to seize and start searching anybody’s mobile phone on the road. The practice of searching the phone of an individual on the road for evidence of internet fraud amounts to conducting a roadside investigation,” he stated. More worrisome, he explained, is the demand of about N2,000 before their phones could be released to the students suspected to be internet fraudsters.While vowing that the Command under his watch would not condone such an act, the Commissioner warned officers to desist from such activities.
“In some of these cases, the young men mostly university undergraduates are made to part with a little or as much as N2,000 for their releases or the release of their phones.
