Three Women Nabbed In Lagos For Beating Up Policemen

Three market women - Fatimoh, 47, Mutiat, 32 and Dupe, 41 - who allegedly assaulted two policemen while on duty, on Thursday appeared before an Ikeja Magistrates’ Court in Lagos.

The three women, all residents of Mushin, are standing trial on a four-count of breach of peace, resisting arrest, serious assault and conspiracy.

According to the Prosecutor, Inspector Aondohemba Koti, the defendants committed the offence on March 23 at Mushin, Lagos State.

He said that the defendants assaulted Assistant Superintendent of Police Abayomi Adejumo and Inspector Oluseun Adelaja while trying to restore peace in a situation.

“The policemen were assaulted when they were trying to make peace between the defendants and some electricity officials. Koti said that the defendants conducted themselves in a manner likely to cause breach of peace by seizing the ladder, property of Eko Electricity Distribution Company over disconnection of power supply.

“The defendants also obstructed James, Adewale and Gideon, the electricity officials, from performing their duties. After the officials disconnected the defendants’ electricity supply, they seized the ladder and sat on it, ordering them to reconnect back the light.

“The electricity officials called the police when they could no longer handle the situation. The defendants still refused to release the ladder and instead, they beat up the policemen. The defendants resisted arrest but were later forced to the station,’’ the prosecutor said.

The women, however, denied the charges.

In her ruling, Magistrate Mrs M.O Tanimola, granted the defendants bail of N60,000 each with one surety each in like sum, NAN reports. All the sureties should be gainfully employed and show evidence of two years tax payment to the Lagos State Government.

The case was adjourned till April 30 for mention.
