It was gathered that the officer had promised to help the teenager retrieve her phone, which had been taken by ‘one chance’ robbers on June 16 while she, her grandmother, and her siblings were returning from Ikeja.
The suspect reportedly overheard the teenager recounting her ordeal to her mother at her shop and offered to help track her missing phone and take her statement.
In his reaction, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, in a text message said the CP immediately directed the Gender Unit to commence an investigation and that is underway.
