Man Shut Dead By SARS Officer, Police Investigating The Case

By Wisdom Peter,

Reports has it that a man has been shut dead by a SARS Officer in Benin, Edo State.

The video of the incidence is reportedly going viral and the Nigerian Police has vowed to make thorough investigations upon the case.

According to a report from Naij.com, the video started with a scene where some young men were being held at gun point by some men in police uniform. Next to come into the picture was a police officer who was dragging a man dressed in white top and trouser.

Moments later, a shot rang out and the new entrant (the man being dragged by the police officer) went down apparently after a bullet hit him. It was not clear if the young man attempted to flee from the policemen when he was shot.

The Nigerian Police attention having been drawn to the circulating video has taken to it’s twitter handle, expressing it’s readiness to make investigations.

The tweet reads: “The @PoliceNG FPRO ACP Frank Mba is personally interested in finding the exact details of what happened here to enable the Force take appropriate actions.”

“The @PoliceNG is therefore appealing to anyone who might have any useful information relating to the incident to reach us through any confidential means. We are committed to ensure justice is done.”

“The IGP has ordered full blown investigation into the incident.”
