 An Idaho community (Pocatello) is outraged after police shoot a disabled teen 9 times only a mere 12 SECONDS after exiting their vehicles.  The teen was lying on the ground with a knife and the community wants the public to know a sturdy 4 foot fence separated the officers from the teen who suffers from cerebral palsy and has the mental capacity of a 5-year-old.  17-year-old Victor Perez remains in critical condition after an incident this weekend that has left an entire Idaho community questioning the officers actions. Victor is a nonverbal autistic teen who is physically disabled and suffers from cerebral palsy. The shocking incident unfolded on Saturday when Victor was involved in a domestic disturbance with his family. It should be noted the family did not call the police but rather a neighbor who was watching the events unfold.

AJAERO' ARREST BY DSS NOT CONNECTED TO POLICE INVITATION, SAYS FALANA. (PHOTO).


 Ajaeroā€™s arrest by DSS not connected to police invitation, says Falana

 

Femi Falana, human rights lawyer, says the arrest of his client, Joe Ajaero, president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), is unconnected with the earlier invitation by the Nigeria police force.


Personnel of the Department of State Services (DSS) arrested Ajaero on Monday morning at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport in Abuja as he was about to board a flight to the UK.


On August 29, the NLC president honoured the invitation of the police over ā€œa case of criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, treasonable felony, subversion, and cybercrimeā€.


Addressing the recent arrest of his client, Falana said the secret police had failed to provide a reason for Ajaeroā€™s arrest.


 ā€œThe invitation to Comrade Joe Ajaero by the police was rescheduled last week. I have contacted the police authorities. The arrest is not related to the police invitation,ā€ he said.


ā€œComrade Ajaero was on his way to London to attend the ongoing TUC conference when he was arrested at the airport this morning by the SSS. No reason has been provided for the arrest by the SSS.ā€

On August 19, the police invited Ajaero for questioning over ā€œa case of criminal conspiracy, terrorism financing, treasonable felony, subversion, and cybercrimeā€.


The letter signed by Adamu Muā€™azu, assistant commissioner of police, indicated that Ajaero was expected at the Intelligence Response Team (IRT) complex on August 20.


Muā€™azu said an arrest warrant would be issued on Ajaero if he did not honour the invitation.


Ajaero declined the invitation, demanding details of the allegations levelled against him.


On August 7, police had raided the NLC building in the Central Business District of Abuja.


The NLC said operatives who raided the building ā€œclaimed that they were looking for seditious materials used for the #EndBadGovernance protestsā€ which took place from August 1-10.


Subsequently, Kayode Egbetokun, inspector-general of police (IGP), said one of the masterminds of the Sudan conflict was traced to the NLC headquarters.


The IGP added that police detectives traced the foreigner to a shop within the Labour House, and that operatives did not raid the entire secretariat.


On August 29, some members of affiliate unions and labour leaders across states, converged on the Labour House ahead of Ajaeroā€™s visit to the IRT.


Afterwards, Ajaero and Femi Falana, human rights lawyer, alongside other activists, left the building for the police headquarters and returned few hours later.


On August 30, the police issued another invitation to Ajaero and Emma Ugboaja, general secretary of the NLC, to appear on September 5.


An invitation letter signed by Ibitoye Alajide, commissioner of police in charge of operations, said Ajaero and Ugboaja are to answer questions over ā€œalleged criminal intimidation, conducts likely to cause a breach of public peace, and malicious damage to propertyā€.
