“This is false” – DJ Switch denies being arrested by the Nigerian police, sends strong warning to Nigeria blogs

According to a police source speaking to LIB, DJ Switch was invited on April 17th to clarify her intentions regarding the case. They sought to determine whether she wanted the accused to face charges in court or to be released on bail. The police emphasized that detaining an accused for more than 48 hours without charging them is against the law.

The police source claimed that DJ Switch insisted that she only wanted the accused to issue an apology, which she intended to record and share online. However, the accused reportedly refused this request. Consequently, as neither party was willing to compromise, the police decided to escalate the matter to court.

According to the police source, when officers were preparing to transport the accused to court, DJ Switch allegedly blocked the entrance of the station with her vehicle and purportedly assaulted the female officers involved in the case.

Following the alleged incident, DJ Switch was arrested on charges of obstructing police duties, resisting arrest, and assaulting police officers. Meanwhile, the accused was taken to court and subsequently remanded in prison custody.
