However, the victim petitioned the command, following which the CP ordered an investigation into the matter.
Briefing journalists on the outcome, Odumosu said the erring policemen were subsequently arrested and transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, SCID, Yaba, from where they were subjected to Orderly Room Trial.
A visibly angry Odumosu warned that under his watch the command would not tolerate such unprofessional conduct from policemen.
The Lagos CP said: “Appropriate disciplinary measures will be taken against the policemen.”
On his part, the victim was full of praise for the command but refused to explain what transpired between him and the offending officers.
