Some operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) met nothing short of their waterloo on Thursday after they reportedly invaded a hotel to arrest ‘Yahoo Boys’.
The SARS operatives were flogged and tortured by soldiers present at the hotel said to be owned by a Senior army official.
Odunews.com learnt that the incident happened at Baystar Hotels located at Abule Egba area of Lagos.
A source who pleaded anonymity told odunews.com that the SARS officials stormed the hotel to assault and extort money from some ‘boys’ who lodged at the hotel.
Unknowingly to them, soldiers who escorted the owner were present in the hotel.
Another eye-witness said the SARS operatives were ‘led to the hotel by a lady and two other men who hoped they would get their share if the operation went smoothly.
He also added that the SARS operatives had invaded the hotel about two months ago arresting some persons who were later bailed by the owner of the hotel.
In the video received by odunews.com, the lady and the two other men who invited the SARS operatives were also beaten.
