The Lagos State Judicial Panel of Restitution and Inquiry, set up to investigate cases of police brutality especially involving officers of the now-defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad(SARS), have awarded two petitioners N10 million each as compensation. The two petitioners, Kudirat Obayomi and Hannah Olugbodi were awarded the compensation today, Friday February 19.
Hannah Olugbodi, a 35-year-old hairdresser, had on November 2020, narrated how she ended up on a crutch after her left leg was shattered by a stray bullet fired by some men of the disbanded Police SARS who were attempting to arrest a young man with tattoos in June 2018 at the Ijeshatedo area of Lagos.
