Mr. Abu pictured on the left said he was attacked by a VIO official for trying
to capture a fight between one of the officers and a road user. Abu
claimed they struck him on the nose and mouth after he refused to allow
him seize his camera.
Narrating the incident he said;
I was trying to capture a video
of a man fighting with a VIO staff and one of the VIO staff saw me from
afar and crossed over to the other side where I was standing. He
attempted to seize the phone and I refused, in the process of resisting
him from dragging my phone. I got two blows on my mouth and nose.
Then I started bleeding...
Not because am physically weak and can not fight but my profession does not permit me to so do.
Am taking recourse to the law and I hope to find justice, and most importantly, to deter them from further harassing innocent citizens.
