CSP Michael noted that the police were unable to arrest the perpetrators of the act as they all ran away on sighting the Police Patrol Team.
CP Abutu Yaro who condemned the barbaric act urged members of the public to always hand over suspects to the police for proper investigation and prosecution instead of taking the laws into their hands.
The Police chief also set up a team to investigate the cause and possible ways to prevent future mob actions in the State.
