Three senior police officers in the ranks of Assistant Superintendent of Police and Inspector have been arrested by the Nigeria Police Force, NPF for alleged kidnapping and extortion of N4,200,000 from two residents of Aba, Abia State.

The erring officers are identified as ASP Daubara Edonyabo, ASP Talent Mungo, both attached to the Intelligence/Surveying unit of the Rivers State command, and an Inspector, Odey Micheal attached to the command sport unit, who was also indicted.

Their arrest was contained in a police signal obtained by SaharaReporters on Saturday.

According to the signal, the erring policemen were also accused of impersonating officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

“The officers attached to Rivers State Police Command were said to have left Port Harcourt to Aba, where they whisked away two men, Kalu Ibe Nnana and Uwaka Anthony Ifeanyi.

“The victims were threatened by the policemen who claimed they were arrested in connection with an ongoing fraudulent investigation,” the signal read.

They (victims) were subsequently forced to cough up N4.2 million in Delta State before they were moved to Lagos State.
