A certain Lucky Joseph has narrated how operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, manhandled him for allegedly possessing Indian hemp.
Sunday Punch reports that Joseph also claimed he was stripped naked and dragged by his penis for resisting arrest.
In Joseph’s words;
“I was just passing and when I got to this point, two SARS officers grabbed me from the back. They then went on to search me.
“They brought out only my handkerchief. When they wanted to put it back into my pocket, I refused and the hand of the officers and the Indian hemp in his hand fell down.
“When that happened, one of them quickly picked it and ordered me to enter inside their vehicle, which I vehemently.
“A huge crowd gathered and insisted that they wanted to know the exact place they were taking me to.
“Four of them (SARS men) began to drag me and stripped me naked. They began to drag me with my manhood, but I did not relent. I also dragged them because I believe I did nothing wrong.
“Two of them later brought out machetes and rifles. I told them that if they wanted to shoot me, they should go ahead and do so. I said that because I was sure I did not commit any offence.
“As we were dragging each other, some wraps of Indian hemp were falling off from their pockets.
“They began to use the machete to inflict injuries on my body and tried to handcuff me, which I resisted.”
Joseph also claimed he paid N30,000 to regain his freedom upon arrest.
