 NPF CLARIFIES POSITION ON TINTED GLASS PERMIT ENFORCEMENT


The Nigeria Police Force has dismissed claims that it is restrained by a  court order from enforcing the tinted glass permit policy, insisting that enforcement remains lawful and necessary for public safety.


At the IRT office, the Force Public Relations Officer explained that at no point did any court stop the police from enforcing the policy. He said the court order being widely circulated was misinterpreted, noting that the injunction only directed parties to maintain the status quo , but  ongoing enforcement, not suspension.


As part of the briefing, the Nigeria Police Force paraded exhibits recovered from various criminal operations conducted nationwide. The Force disclosed that seven major cases were successfully concluded, leading to the arrest of nine suspects involved in armed robbery, kidnapping, cultism, and drug-related offences.


Items recovered from the suspects include two AK-47 rifles, three pump-action rifles, two single-barrel guns, two Beretta pistols, four locally fabricated revolvers , six live cartridges, four magazines, thirty-five rounds of live ammunition among other exhibits.


He further assured Nigerians that comprehensive security plans have been put in place to prevent any breakdown of law and order during the forthcoming festive season, with increased patrols, surveillance, and rapid response units deployed across major cities and highways.
