Lagos To Prosecute 12 Suspects Over Attack On Operatives.
Operatives of the Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences Agency have concluded plans to prosecute 12 arrested suspects who allegedly attacked members of an enforcement team of the Agency on Tuesday, damaging four of their vehicles in the process.
He explained that on getting to the scene around the Alapere Police Station, the protesters came out en mass to attack the team with stones, Iron-rod, broken bottles and cutlasses. The Chairman confirmed that 38 suspects were initially arrested during the fracas, but 26 individuals were later released after a thorough screening.
“Let me state categorically that the battle line has been drawn with these illegal motorcyclists and to warn various associations regulating their operations to immediately call them to comply with the law as the government would no longer tolerate the slightest attack on any enforcement personnel forthwith,” he stated.
