Justice Akintayo Aluko of the Federal High Court in Lagos State has ordered the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba, to obey an order seeking the release of a truck unlawfully seized and detained by the Divisional Police Officer and the Divisional Crime Officer of the Isolo Police Division, Lagos State, since December 21, 2020.

Alade, a truck driver, commenced the suit before Justice M. A. Onyetenu on March 10, 2021, through his counsel, Love Okwuokei. The applicant claimed that policemen from the Isolo Police Division arrested him on the allegation that he hit an electric pole with his truck. In a ruling on March 26, Justice Onyetenu ordered the truck’s release pending the hearing and determination of the suit.

At the commencement of proceedings last Friday, the judge berated the police for disobeying the court order.
