Bus driver jailed for abducting FRSC official

  

                A bus driver, Osas Osarunmwenbo, has been jailed by an Oredo Magistrate Court for assaulting and abducting an official of the Federal Road Safety Commission identified as Mr. Udom.
               Osas was sentenced to one month imprisonment or an option of N100,000 fine after being found guilty of the charges.
He was charged for failure to use seat belt, violation of caution sign, dangerous driving and assaulting a Marshal on duty.

The court was informed that Mr. Udom stopped Osas for routine check, but the driver took him to a remote location at Oregbeni quarters.
The FRSC official said Osas and some thugs used shovel to beat him up, adding that he managed to call the police that rescued him.
Presiding Magistrate, F.E.N Igbinosa, ordered the convict to pay N20, 000 for Udom’s medical bills, damaged wrist watch and towing van.
The Edo State Sector commander of FRSC, Mr. Oluwasusi Familoni, said the officer attempted to arrest the culprit for disobeying road traffic rules when he was attacked.
