Policemen arrested overlynching of students inBadagry

According to Punch, the policemen who just
stood there and watched while two young men
were beaten to death on Sunday July 21 in
Badagry, have been arrested. The police officers,
Inspector Adefemi Ashogbon and Sergeant John
Sonayon of the Badagry Police Division were
arrested on Friday August 2nd. Sergeant
Sonayon was the police officer that interviewed
the victims during their torture. Eight other
people have also been arrested over the
lynching.
Lagos state Commissioner of Police, Umar Manko
said,
“The Divisional Police Officer did not present
the matter to us the way it happened.
When we started asking questions, we
discovered that the two people, who were
killed, were not armed robbers contrary to
what the DPO told us. When we saw the
video clips and watched the way those boys
were killed, we told ourselves that we would
be failing in our duties if we fail to bring
everyone involved to justice.”
The sooner they start giving long prison
sentences to people who lynch or people who
are even found on the scene of a lynching...just
looking sef...the safer our family and friends will
be.
