Three police inspectors arrested for alleged brutal assault on colleague’s son over love affair

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested three police inspectors for allegedly assaulting a 22-year-old man, Jacob Sunday, into a state of coma at the 22 PMF Barracks, Ogudu.

According to sources available to Zagazola Makama, the incident occurred around 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday when the officers — Inspector John Alom of 63 PMF Ikorodu, Inspector Sunday Adoga of CTU Base 2 Ikeja, and Inspector Jehovah Usam of 22 PMF Ikeja — allegedly lured the victim into their room.

Jacob, said to be the son of Inspector Sunday Ochepo, was accused of having an affair with Sarah Richard, wife of ASP Audu Richard, who also resides in the barracks.

The victim was reportedly stripped naked and beaten mercilessly until he lost consciousness. He was later rescued by detectives and taken to the Police College Cottage Hospital, Ikeja, where he is currently receiving treatment in the emergency unit.

The three officers have since been arrested and detained as the Command continues its investigation into the incident.
