According to eyewitness accounts, the dark-skinned woman, spotting a low cut, was picked up close by the cops, who accused her of being a cultist.
“Despite her screams that she was innocent and only came to the area to relax and was not guilty of anything, the policemen dragged her on the floor, removed her footwear, handcuffed and drove away,” the eyewitness, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of victimisation, said.
When contacted, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, said, “I am not aware of the incident.”All rights reserved.
