Two police officers, Sgt Ajileye Samuel and Police constable Garuba Gbenga, are cooling their heels in the cell of the Independent Corrupt Practises and other related offences Commission, ICPC for demanding and collecting bribe from suspects before granting them bail.
The arrest of the two police officers was communicated to LEADERSHIP SUNDAY on friday through a press statement signed by Mike Sowe, Head Public Englightenment Department of the Commission.
According to the statement, Sgt Ajileye Samuel and PC Garuba Gbenga, serving with the 'A' Division of the Nigeria Police in Akure, Ondo state, had released one of three suspects on bail, on the condition that she would go and source for N3,000 (three thousand naira), as a condition for the release of the two others, the statement alleged.
