Suspected thief narrowly escapes lynching in Lagos
February 1, 2017
A suspected thief narrowly escaped jungle justice in the Ajao estate area of Lagos after he was allegedly caught in the act by an angry mob.
An eyewitness identified as Anekwe narrated that the unnamed suspect was notoriously known for his atrocities in the area.
“This thief was caught on Kaara street, Ajao estate, Lagos. Jungle justice is not the way forward. Some of us pleaded with the securities on the street to hand him over to the police,” Anekwe shared.
“This man right here is a born criminal. He has been to the same house 3 times. He spends some time in jail then comes back out to the same compound when everyone has gone to work.”
