According to a statement by the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the police have been investigating the incident and are committed to ensuring justice is served.
A viral video on social media showed four men whipping the woman as she writhed on the ground inside a boutique. The video caption alleged that the salesgirl was accused of stealing from her employer, who instructed the men to flog her as punishment.
The Lagos State Police Command has assured that the incident is being taken seriously, and the suspects will face the full weight of the law.
