Lagos Police Command arrest fake policeman extorting money from the public

The Lagos State Police Command on Wednesday, June 1, 2016 arrested one Austine Okwuokei (seen in photo) at Costain Roundabout, Iponri, while extorting money from motorist under the pretence of being a policeman.
Investigation carried out revealed that the said Austine makes up to Ten Thousand Naira (N10,000) daily from his illegal activities which has painted the police in bad light as his victims saw him as a genuine policeman. Arrangements have been concluded to charge the suspect to court accordingly.

The Lagos State Police Command is advising members of the public not to part with their money to anyone who claims to be a police officer or seen wearing resemblance of police uniform as the leadership of the force frowns at all forms of corruption.
