accident victims and persons with gunshot wounds without any police
report when the need arises. In a statement released today August 21st,
Arase said the police can be informed afterwards for necessary action after the
injured have been given proper attention. The full text of the statement after the cut...
The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Solomon E. Arase, NPM fdc has
enjoined members of the public including medical personnel to attend to
accident victims and persons with gunshot injuries and thereafter,
inform the Police for necessary action.
This became imperative, following neglects and consequent untimely death of victims in this regard out of fear of being implicated without Police involvement.
The Police High Command also directed its Officers and men not to
harass good Samaritans/Nigerians in this regard, but endeavour to elicit
correct facts in relation to incident from them.
Doctors on duty
are equally duty bound to treat victims of gunshot wounds and further
inform Police of relevant facts. The safety of Nigerians is a
collaborative effort of all and sundry. Police therefore, enjoin
citizens not to relent in their cooperative attitude in ensuring safety
of all. While they are also to report any suspicious person or persons
to the nearest Police Station.
