Three men drown while fleeing police arrest

Did the police cause the drowning of three young men at the wee hours of Thursday at Apongbon seaside in Lagos?

It was gathered that the deceased and seven other of their friends were at the seaside around 1am when policemen alleged to be men of the defunct Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad stormed the place.While six of the men were said to have been rescued later that day, three were recovered dead and one still missing at the time of this report.

Spokesman for the command Bala Elkana, a Deputy Superintendent of Police told The Nation Sunday night that the Divisional Police Officer in charge of the area had asked the people to describe the policemen or their vehicle but they couldn’t.
