The National Human Rights Commission has asked the federal government to arrest and prosecute the Department of State Services operatives who broke into the court to rearrest convener of #RevolutionNow Movement, Omoyele Sowore.
The Executive Secretary of NHRC, Tony Ojukwu, said the commission wants the operatives tried for contempt of court to serve as a reminder to all law enforcement agents that they must obey the law in carrying out their duties.
Citizens and officials are also advised to respect the law and the constitution in the enforcement of the law.
Mr Sowore, who had been in detention since August 3, was released after 124 days but less than 24 hours after he regained freedom, armed DSS officials stormed a federal high court, Abuja, to rearrest him.
