Not less than three suspects have been arrested by operatives of the Edo State Police Command in a viral video in which one Miss Favour Ada was stripped and tortured for alleged phone theft.The iphone is said to be worth over N400,000 at Ugbiyoko, a suburb of Benin.
The lady was stripped unclad and tortured before pepper was inserted in her private part.The victim was seriously injured as a result of the attack.She is now recuperating at the intensive unit of the University of Benin Teaching Hospital.
All efforts to speak with the Edo state Police Public Relations Officer, Chidi Nwabuzor, failed, as he was said to be in Abuja with the State Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu on an official assignment.
Why will they take the laws into their hands? If she stole a phone, take her to the police station. They do not have the right to treat her like an animal. We have a law in Nigeria that gives us freedom from toture and inhuman treatment
