A Magistrate Court in Ogba Lagos State has remanded four men to the Kirikiri Maximum Correctional facility in Apapa, Lagos for allegedly assaulting police officers.
Ehis Tito Odigie, a 33-year-old music producer, Miracle Onukuoforobi, 27years old, an Igbinedion University student, 26-year-old Oyedeji Motunrayo and 31-year-old Bolade Richard, both corps members.
The quartet were arraigned on Tuesday and the case was adjourned till October 10, 2022.
According to Lagos Police Command spokesman, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the offenders were charged to court for “serious assault” on officers.
In the video recorded evidence tendered in court, the civilians engaged a team of operatives in fisticuffs.
One of the defendants is seen pushing off a policeman’s cap; he later seized it after picking it from the ground.
The Lagos Command confirmed that both parties had video recordings which were reviewed.
“The police officers too are undergoing questioning. Investigation is ongoing.
“One thing remains sure: everyone, police inclusive, found culpable will face the law,” Hundeyin added.
