Background

SARS is a branch of the Nigeria Police Force under the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (FCIID). The squad deals with crimes associated with armed robbery, car snatching, kidnapping, cattle rustling, and crimes associated to firearms. SARS officers carry guns, but do not wear Nigerian police uniforms or badges (much like similar “plainclothes” police units in other nations).

Public records indicate systematic Corruption of the FSARS Units throughout Nigeria, successive Governments have been unwilling to either reform or scrap this Unit. This may not be unconnected with the penchant of this Unit to aid electoral malpractices by “snatching” ballot boxes, voter intimidation, the kidnapping of electoral officers, maiming electorates and ensuring elections do not hold in areas deemed to be strongholds of political opponents.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” vc_row_background=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The Brutality

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” vc_row_background=”” css=”.vc_custom_1602255884296{background-color: #303030 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]
