The daily torch media
The recent arrest of controversial singer Portable has sparked public outrage, not only over the nature of the allegations but also due to a viral video showing his degrading treatment in police custody.
According to insider sources, Portable was arrested following a complaint from one of his baby mamas, who accused him of physical assault and other misconduct. While the Ogun State Police Command has confirmed his arrest, the circulating video showing him in a humiliating state has drawn serious concern.
Critics have questioned who recorded the video from within the police station and why such footage was allowed to surface, especially when the suspect was in a vulnerable state. The treatment captured in the video appears to violate basic legal and human rights norms.
The Ogun State Police Command, through its spokesperson, acknowledged the incident and stated that an internal investigation is underway. The Command assured the public that any officer found culpable for misconduct or breach of procedure would face disciplinary action.
Legal experts and human rights advocates have condemned the situation, noting that every suspect — whether awaiting trial or convicted — deserves to be treated with dignity and fairness under the law.
