The
officers were arrested due to their alleged involvement in the mob
action that led to the brutal killing of the two young men as captured
by various video clips which later went viral on the internet.
According
to our source, Inspector Adefemi Ashogbon, Sergeant John Sanayon and
seven other police officers were granted bail due to their deteriorating
health in detention and were allowed to seek medical attention pending
the outcome of the investigation and date of their trial.
A
video recording by some bystanders exposed Inspector Adefemi Ashogbon
and Sergeant John Sanayon, who were attached to the Badagry Police
station, at the scene of lynching while seven others police officers
were detained for allegedly planting guns on the victims and labelling
them armed robbers.
Several
calls were made to the Lagos state police spokesperson, Ngozi Braide,
in a bid to ascertain the grant of bail. However, they went unanswered.
