The Bayelsa State Command of the Federal Road Safety Corps was on Wednesday thrown into grief after its official, Mr. Bassey Inoyo, was allegedly tortured to death by policemen.
It was learnt that Inoyo, a senior FRSC official, was due to proceed on retirement leave in November.
An eyewitness told our correspondent that trouble started on Tuesday morning when a police officer from Special Anti-Robbery Squard Unit felt aggrieved over the conduct of a road safety official.
He said, “The road safety official who is serving in Sagbama Local Government Area of the state was blocked by a car.
He was waiting for the car to be driven out before driving in. In the process, he temporarily blocked the narrow road.
“But the police officer who was in mufti hooted his horn many times signaling the road safety officer to clear the road for him to pass. Eventually, the road safety man drove in and parked but already the police officer in mufti was aggrieved.
He came down from his vehicle and descended on the road safety official.”
The source alleged that the policeman tore the FRSC official’s rank and his uniform and then engaged him in a fight.
