The infamous website hacker group, Anonymous have reportedly broken into the database of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Nigeria Police Force and released details of the officers in the now-defunct unit.
The hacker released about 371 names of SARS officers in Nigeria.
The police unit had been under criticism in the country following extrajudicial activities and killings by its officers.
The protest has been going on for eight days across different states in the country.
A Twitter user known as @von_bismack, shared some screenshots of the details released by the hacker.
