Few hours after OAP Dotun’s claim of arrest of the woman filmed flogging a boy locking him in a dog cage, the Zone 2 Police Relations Officer, Dolapo Badmus has confirmed the claims.
WITHIN NIGERIA had earlier reported and uploaded the video of the ugly and despotic act where a small boy was mercilessly whipped and locked into dog’s cage by a woman.
There were speculations some days ago that the woman in the video has been arrested as claimed by a media personality, OAU Dotun which has been recently confirmed on Instagram by Dolapo Badmus.
I thanked everyone that cooperated with the police in getting to the root of the matter, she stated.
“Last week we got a report of a lady that beat a young lad and threw him into dungeon of dogs! As I got the information through @funkejenifaakindele and @do2dtun, the domestic violence response police team of Lagos State command was activated! The team went into action and the lady was consequently arrested,.
The video is that of the cage where the lady threw the boy after that merciless beating!
The suspect is in custody and will be charged to court….The boy (an orphan) has been rescued and kept in a shelter with Lagos state government!
I appreciate everyone that cooperated with the police in getting to the root of the matter!
