Three female police officers in Edo have faced the ultimate disgrace after they were stripped naked by residents of the Oregbeni Quarters in the Ikpoba-Okha Local Government Area of the state.
The officers had gone to arrest a woman but she insisted on taking her bath before going to the police station.
The policewomen then tried to use force but unfortunately for them residents of the area ganged up on them, stripped them naked and beat them up.
The officers were invited to arrest the woman by the latter’s landlady, one Mrs. Okebuse, The Nation reports.
“When the police came to make arrest, they started fighting the police. I ran for my life and hid in the other compound,” the landlady said.
Okebuse had invited the police to evict the woman and an eyewitness said that the landlady was fond of harassing her tenants.
“The woman was taking her bath and the police officers refused to allow the woman to take her bath,” the witness said.
The incident has been confirmed by the State Police Commissioner, Foluso Adebanjo who said that the attackers would be brought to justice.
