The Police in Delta State says it has defaulted five of its personnel including one Paul Audu who allegedly beat up a commercial bus driver and broke his head following the driver’s resistance to part with the sum of N200 at a police checkpoint along Eku-Abraka road.

The incident which occurred last Thursday also led to widespread condemnation on the professionalism of policemen on the social media with most persons accusing the police of inciting another round of #EndSARS protest.

Speaking on Sunday, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Onome Onovwakpoyeya stated that the driver has been treated and the policemen involved in the incident had been tried and defaulted in accordance with the police rules.
