Reports that officers who arrested the “most wanted” kidnap kingpin, Evans, last Saturday stuck broomsticks up his penis to spiritually disarm him have been denied by the Police.
According to reports, The Guardian Newspaper reported Sunday morning that security operatives who participated in the high-profile operation inserted broomsticks into Evan’s penis, without quoting any officials or witnesses.
They wrote:
“A ritual where a broom was inserted into his private organ was then performed as a sort of spiritual disarming before he was handcuffed,”
Police spokesperson, Jimoh Moshood, said the arrest was a major success and a moral booster in the war against incessant kidnapping, which has become a lucrative enterprise for hardened criminals in recent years and denied the claims of gruesome torture.
He said:
“The report is not true. It is unfounded. Nigerians should disregard it,”
Millions of Nigerians in different parts of the country who dreaded this suspect will now be able to sleep with their two eyes closed,
If they insert broomsticks into a man’s penis, would he even be able to walk?No one should be casting aspersion on the police, especially when officers are making high-profile arrests in an effort to ensure peace and security.
He was paraded before the media and he expressed himself with ease,Nobody can stand with such a torture.
We don’t violate citizens’ fundamental rights, no matter the gravity of their crimes.”
