The Nigeria Police Force says jungle justice is a crime, following Monday’s mob attack on a US-based medical doctor who was falsely suspected of kidnapping.
The Force Media Officer, CSP Aliyu Giwa, condemned the act in a post shared on his X handle, @aleeygiwa, on Thursday.
He urged members of the public to always verify facts and report any suspicious activity to the police rather than taking the law into their own hands.
“Jungle justice is not justice; it is a crime.
“Always check the facts before reacting and report to the police before taking any action.
“An innocent man was almost lynched, and his car was burnt, all because of an assumption,” he said.
