Lekki Tollgate: Panel summons military authorities over shooting
The Lagos State judicial panel of inquiry has submitted its report to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State.
The panel investigated SARS related abuses, restitution for victims of police brutality and the October 20, 2020 shooting of young, unarmed protesters at the Lekki tollgate.
SARS is an acronym for Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), a notorious police unit that was scrapped by President Muhammadu Buhari in the wake of the nationwide anti-police brutality protests.
The 8-member panel took petitions, recommended restitutions and summoned military authorities over the tollgate shooting.
