The video of the policeman strangling the driver of a moving vehicle surfaced online, showing the officer dragging the car wheels which led to the moment the passenger jumped out of the moving vehicle.
The state’s spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, however, confirmed that the police officer has been identified.
He wrote: “Both men obviously behaved in a reckless manner. But let us start from the beginning. Why choose to abduct a policeman despite his dangerous method of attempting to stop you? You remained hellbent on taking him away against his wish.
“The officer has been identified. He serves in Mosafejo Division. We would appreciate the testimony of the driver to enable us to take further necessary actions.”
