7 Things That Can Get You Into Trouble
With The Police(SARS)...
The Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) is
notorious for profiling people, mostly
young Nigerians.
The activities of the special police unit are
now
trending on social media » . Hundreds of
people are narrating the experience with
SARS operatives.
If the tweets are anything to go by, you
could get arrested by SARS for looking or
dressing some type of way. The reasons
range from the ridiculous to the
unbelievable.
Today Samuel Okon has compiled a list of
ten things that shouldn't get you arrested
by SARS but still do. You can read them
below;
1) Tattoos
Tattoos are works of art and harmless fun
but SARS use it to profile criminals. Having
a tattoo or tattoos would most likely make
you a suspect in the eyes of SARS
officials. These law enforcement officials
seem to believe only criminals have
tattoos.
If you bump into any of them and have a
tattoo you are going to be in big trouble.
The chances of being arrested and
interrogated are pretty high.
2) Laptops
Having a laptop shouldn't be a big deal
but for SARS operatives it is another
indicator that you are into Internet fraud.
The mere possession of a laptop would get
you into serious trouble with SARS
operatives.
If you do not have a receipt for the laptop
then you are in big trouble which might
land you in a prison cell. SARS officers
don't believe ordinary citizens should own
laptops.
3) Dreadlocks & Beards
SARS operatives have been known to arrest
men with dreadlocks and beards. It is code
red for them. You could be artistic, woke
and be a member of the beard gang, SARS
could care less. No one really knows the
connection between crime and having
dreadlocks and a beard.
You could be as gentle as a dove and still
get arrested for having dreads and beards.
4) Ear piercing
Mainstream Nigeria has always frowned on
men with ear piercings so this is not much
of a surprise. SARS operatives have
jumped on this stereotype to arrest and
detain young men with ear piercings.
5) Possession of a mobile phone
In the 21st century, everyone should have
a mobile phone. The men of the SARS
don't seem to think this way. Once they
stop you in public, the next thing is to ask
for your phone and search it with no
warrant. The more expensive your phone,
the bigger the trouble you are in. You
could be called a cultist or Internet
fraudster once they go through your
phone.
6) Driving a car
If you are young and have a car, trust me,
SARS will pull you over several times and
search it. There are unconfirmed stories of
SARS operatives planting incriminating
objects in the cars of innocent Nigerians to
get them arrested.
7) Dress sexy
It's not only men that get wrongly profiled
by SARS, women too are victims. Thanks
to the anti-SARS Twitter thread we've
found out that these policemen pick on
women too. Their style is to harass women
who they think dress like prostitutes.
These unlucky women are thrown into
vans for interrogation or a ride around
town. www.completetechupdate.com.ng/2017/12/profitable-niche-top-4-paying-niches.html |
