Abba Kyari: It is Not Our Customs to Parade Drug Suspects, Says NDLEA
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has explained why other suspects arrested with the controversial Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Abba Kyari, were not paraded.
The agency explained on its Twitter handle said that it was not in the customs of the NDLEA to parade suspects over drug trafficking allegations.
In the post by Femi Babafemi, Director of Media and Advocacy, said the agency can only release pictures and videos of such recoveries for many to see.
The agency was reacting to concerns that Abba Kyari and suspects were not paraded by the NDLEA.
Babafemi said on the Twitter handle. ”A lot of people are mixing things up here. We do not parade suspects. We have never paraded any suspects. That is the truth. I have never brought any suspects before newsmen.
“What we do most times is that when we issue a statement on our activities, we select some pictures of the exhibits, sometimes with the suspects there, just to show the public because we have a very cynical society that even with pictures, still, a number of people would say it is not possible”.
