For refusing to pay bribe, a man was left injured following an incident between a policeman and a driver in Owerri, Imo state. It was reported that the police officer destroyed the side mirror of the vehicle after his demand of N100 bribe was not met by the driver, which led to his injury.
Likewise, it was gathered that even after seeing the injury his
action caused on the victim, the policeman was not remorseful and
allegedly threatened to kill him’
And this is a police officer operating along Obilubi by Capitol
junction ( Orji road to Ikeduru) with name Candy Bole as seen on his
name crest.Because a driver of the car I was inside could not complied
with his #100 demand, he has to hit the side mirror which broke and got
me several wounds on my face.
And I ask, is police meant to destroy or rather harm citizens just because of money was not meant available to them?
I have forgiven him, and have gone on with my business after the
treatment but my worries. He never showed remorse to his actions even
when his colleagues condemned his actions and he even threatened to
shoot me to death, which got me angry that I almost fought him, but
remembering he was wearing a national uniform I kept my head cool and
the people around confirmed it has always been his actions.
I plead that If this ever get to the authorities, I want him to be
stopped so that other innocent citizens don’t suffer same faith or him
gunning an innocent citizen down someday.
