Police officer caught on camera brutalising a passenger in Lagos, Nigeria

Lagos police officer tugging passenger

Police officer in Lagos tugging a passenger's shirt

 

It happened right in front of me. A police officer in uniform and one in mufti , stopped the taxi in the picture and asked to see the receipts for the goods in the booth of the cab. One of the passengers provided the receipt and his ID card indicating he is a staff of one NNPC’s  depots.

The police officer in uniform carefully considers the document and suddenly blurts out: I’m not satisfied with this! ‘Mr man come down’ he says to the man seating in front. But the man refused, asking him(the officer) to go sit in the back of the cab instead.

At this point, the officer starts tugging on the guys shirt in a bid to drag him out of the cab and seat in front. I guess that was when I took the shot.He was later taken away to Tolu police station, Olodi, Apapa where he was certainly extorted.
