NIGERIAN NATIONAL ASSAULTS A POLICE CONSTABLE OF MAPUCA PS

PANJIM: A Nigerian national was arrested by the Mapusa police for assaulting a constable attached to the Mapusa police station and fracturing his arm.  Constable Upendra Poll was assaulted by Lambart Ekwa, 33, when he apprehended him for not possessing travel documents, including a passport, on Tuesday afternoon.
"We have registered a case under Section 333 of the IPC for causing grievous injuries to a government servant on duty, as well as under the Foreigner's Act as he did not possess the necessary travel documents. He has been arrested and is in police custody," said Mapusa PI Rajesh Kumar.
On Tuesday, the police started a drive to crack down on Nigerians residing without valid documents within the Mapusa police jurisdiction. "We raided a Nigerian's house in Mapusa in the afternoon. As news about the raid spread, many of the Nigerians staying in Goa without valid documents left their homes and tried to escape the police. Ekwa, too, while attempting to avoid the police, was nabbed by Poll and other policemen on duty upon being intercepted at Guirim," said police sources.
When the police asked him whether he had valid travel documents, Ekwa pushed Poll and tried to give him the slip. "He ran into the fields for nearly 700m before Poll managed to catch him. However, he tried to push Poll and escape. But when Poll held on to him and shouted out to his colleagues, Ekwa assaulted him. However, Poll did not let him escape and soon the other policemen came and overpowered the Nigerian," said police sources.
Later, when Poll was sent for a medical examination, doctors confirmed that he had fractured his arm, the police said.   The Mapusa police have sent a wireless message to all police stations, including the foreigners' registration office (FRO), to verify if the Nigerian has any criminal cases registered against him in the state.

Funny, very funny,  usually the constables manage to twist the arm of tourists  to make money when their documents are fake. In this case the cop ended up fracturing his arm.  I see these as positive signs.

Gobor Bab- You are absoutly RIGHT.

This bastards[GOA POLICE] must not only be  fractured in Arm, but also be kicked and smashed on the ground. Sure this Tourist know  the story of Goa Police, How a Police empty the pocket of foreign Tourist on small  faults.

SURE THIS CONSTABLE WAS TRYING TO TAKE BRIBES FROM THE NIGERIAN

We Goans have no guts to do this or take action on them [ GOA POLICE ]
 It is not our lookout that the constables have to send share  of bribes to their seniors everydad any how . POLICE Constables are like the Children Beggars kept by their Beggers Boss on the Streets to beg.


   . I am proud of this Nigerian.
