FRSC Says Video Of Officers Assaulting Driver Was 'Manipulated



The Federal Road Safety Commission, FRSC, on Tuesday said the recent video showing its officials assaulting the driver of a moving vehicle in the FCT was manipulated. The Corps Marshal, Boboye Oyeyemi, disclosed this in a statement issued by the Public Education Officer of the FRSC, Bisi Kazeem, in Abuja.

Mr. Oyeyemi said investigation revealed that the video released by the driver of the vehicle only told one side of the story, adding that the driver would be prosecuted to deter others.

“An investigation panel revealed that a patrol team flagged down a driver for routine checks. When his car was to be impounded for running foul of traffic laws, a female staff was attached to the offender’s vehicle. She was to accompany the vehicle to a nearby FRSC office for other necessary processes as contained in the operational procedure to be effected, but the driver sped away with the female staff. A patrol team, obviously concerned about the motive of the fleeing driver, had to apply force to rescue the female operative,” the corps marshal said.
