However commenting on the assault incident, the Ondo State Police spokesperson Femi Joseph, said the matter involved two drunk students who were on a motorcycle.
According to him, the students’ refusal to be searched led to one of the students getting injured after being slightly pushed by one of the policemen.
He said, “The students were stopped by the policemen on patrol on Sunday night, and when they were asked to open the bag they held, they refused, that was what caused an argument between them, leading to one of them to slightly push the lady. But because the lady was drunk, she fell down and got injured.
“In spite of that, as I am speaking with you now, the policeman in question has been arrested and will face trial today ( Tuesday). He would definitely be punished. ”
