The Anambra State Police Command has rescued a pregnant woman from the security office of Anambra Vigilante at Okija in Ihiala local government area, allegedly detained over a case of stealing by her husband.
It was learnt that the report of the incident was intercepted by the State Commissioner of Police, Nnaghe Obono Itam in a trending video, who immediately deployed rescue operations and ordered for an investigation into the report.
In a statement signed by the Police Spokesman, SP Ikenga Tochukwu yesterday in Awka stated that the Police Boss, who frowns at indiscriminate detention and inhuman treatment of suspects by some AVG members in the state, assured that the root cause of the incidents would be addressed to avert future occurrence.
“The Police Commissioner also initiated necessary moves with relevant authorities to checkmate the excesses of the few unprofessional AVG members in the state”, the statement read.
