Few days after video of a police officer who was captured with a POS machine while demanding for the ATM card of a young man went viral, the Nigerian Police has reacted to the viral video.

WITHIN NIGERIA had earlier reported that nineteen days after a video of a police officer who lamented over N100 bribe and demanded for increment went viral, another video of a police officer requesting for the ATM card of a passenger has surfaced online.

In a statement released by the Nigerian Police Force, the security agency announced that it has commenced investigations to unravel the authenticity of the video, location of incident and identity of some of those spotted in the video.

The Police vowed that they will bring to book any officer found wanting in the discharge of his or her duties.
