A mob carried out jungle justice on two men for allegedly robbed a POS attendant in the Igando area of Lagos state.
The Lagos Police command’s spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the incident on Sunday.
Hundeyin said the incident happened on Independence Day, stressing that the mob set the victims ablaze and burnt them beyond recognition.
”Police arrived at the scene but the mob had fled. Investigation has commenced,” he said.
The image maker, however, frowned at the action of the mob, wondering how to put a stop to the archaic and criminal practice.
Hundeyin said jungle justice was a criminal case in Nigeria, calling on members of the public to stop the crime.
He said rather, they should hand over the suspect to the police for prosecution.
