The Police in Lagos has arrested one Inspector Dele Reubens who was captured in a video harassing a motorist over the now-suspended-tinted-glass permit.

The state command spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, stated this in a statement on Friday in Lagos.

He said that the officer was currently undergoing disciplinary procedures at the State Police Headquarters, Ikeja.

“The policeman harassing a motorist in a video that has gone viral is undergoing orderly room trial,” Mr Hundeyin said.

Mr Hundeyin said that Mr Reuben’s arrest came on the heels of the directive of the Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alabi, that the errant officer be identified, arrested and decisively dealt with.

“It is pertinent to reiterate that issuance of tinted-glass permit remains suspended by the force management to enable an upgrade of the tinted-glass-permit portal.

“In effect, while all existing-tinted-glass permits remain valid, issuance of new permits is yet to resume,” the spokesperson said.

Mr Hundeyin reiterated the commissioner’s zero tolerance for harassment, extortion and abuse of rights of the citizens if the state by any police officers.
