A case of police brutality.

Yesterday been been 10/12/19,I was on my way from Warri to Abraka,all in delta state. On my way at Eku Township,
I was stopped by some police men who were in an unregistered Toyota Sienna,who had already stopped a Toyota Camry which was ahead of me. I was asked to pull over which I did. They asked for my identity of which I told them I was a medical Doctor.They asked for my ID card and I
Told them I couldn’t find it that morning but however I had my Original documents which I just scanned online. I availed them the documents(my CV,Certificate of full registration,Annual Practising license,NYSC discharge certificate,MBBS certificate,birth certificate). He looked
at them and told me to open my boot. While this was happening the rest of the policemen were with the other car which was also pulled over before I was. I was told to open my boot which I did. The policeman with me searched my boot and didn’t see anything. He said I should call a
a colleague at my hospital to identify me,so I called a senior doctor at my hospital and the policeman spoke with him and he identified me as a staff of the hospital. These policemen had no name tag on their uniform. After speaking with my colleague,he started checking my phone
for evidence of fraud. After thoroughly searching my phone,he started my car again. He threw my cloths on the floor and searched the pockets of my cloths,then went ahead to pull my car seat covers tearing some in the process. Whilst searching the car,he saw my NMA(Nigerian medica
l association) ID card. He asked how much I bought the car,I told him. By these time his colleagues joined in the discussion. He said I was a fraudster and I was shocked. They said my car was a stolen car too. They said I should enter my car but I declined,this led to series of
Slap and punches from the policemen who said I was proving stubborn. I told them I didn’t know what my offence was besides I didn’t know where they were they want to take me to as they don’t have identification. They told me they were ‘IGP Squad’ from the IGP. I still resisted
as I couldn’t follow them.They slammed my head against my door frame. Throwing punches at me while I begged them to leave me to go as I might be having a possible surgery to assist that evening. They became too violent and pushed me inside my vehicle. The head of the unit entered
the drivers side and started driving.I asked him where we are going to.He said I was proving stubborn,that if I had co-operates,things wouldn’t have escalated. While we were at driving,the unregistered sienna was behind us and then the young man that was stopped too following as
His own car was driven by a policeman. My driver said they will take me to Obiaruku police station. I said okay that the chief medical director of General hospital Obiaruku was my Boss when I was at General Hospital Abraka and could identify me. On our way we passed the house of
the dealer who sold the vehicle to me. I showed him the house and said we could arrest the guy if he feels it’s a stolen vehicle but he ignored me.When he remembered I had a senior colleague at Obiaruku,he diverted to a road I wasn’t used to.He made sure my glasses were up so no
One would know I was been kidnapped as we passed Abraka township. While we were driving,I told the my police driver to call one of his boss who was the SARS commander then at Abraka because I recognized about two of them as members of that SARS squad. He was angry with me.He said
that I was settling that one and he ate the money alone but I told him no,that it was only when they bring gunshot injuries to the hospital and on some cases when I see him hanging out but at least he knew me and could identify me. Pleas and apologies fell on deaf ears and stone
I was taking to a hospital at Owhelogbo. I’ve never been there before .when we reached there they resumed search of my car again,they picked some antihypertnsive drugs and syringe they saw and said it was evidence against me stating that as a doctor I wasn’t supposed to be with
Drugs. Another beating session ensued ,they said I must confess to the crime of fraud. These asked how much I earned from internship till NYSC for me to afford a Lexus car and an IPhone. My interrogator said I should write the phone no of the person in charge of salaries at the
Hospital where I did internship. I told them to check my statement of account if they wanted. They picked my calls and tried eliciting incriminating statements from whoever was calling by pretending to be me and telling the callers I was arrested on account of fraud. The callers
Were baffled and confused.when they didn’t succeed,they started another beating session,coercing me to write statement that I was an armed robber,fraudster and kidnapper and I am appealing to the police to leave me. While I was writing statement ,I told them I can’t remember my
Phone no and will need to copy it from my phone.when they gave me my phone,I sent an SOS to a cousin who was a policeman.He started calling my line. When they saw his calls,they were uneasy and wondered when I made calls.
They forced me to buy ‘fuel’ for them and started tellin
Me how I could join police since I was young and a clinician. I would get accelerated promotion according to them. I was given my car keys and left to go home. I was in severe pains with blurry vision. It felt like a dream but I jus didn’t wake up from it.

I just want them to be
Stopped before they kill someone. I’ve never been this scared in my life.

I know them and can identify them, I want them to be punished.
