Description

The Anti-Robbery Squad came under attack recently after a video released online showed how a boy arrested by SARS operatives in Ughelli area of Delta State, Nigeria, fell off from the car while being conveyed to an undisclosed location. Some other videos which surfaced online also alleged that a SARs operative shot a young man in front of a hotel in the Ughelli area of Delta State.

The videos sparked tension on the internet prompting security operatives to arrest the videographer, Prince Nicholas Makolomi.
