A taxi driver was forced out of his vehicle and beaten on Thursday by policemen allegedly over his refusal to part way with N100 bribe.

The incident reportedly happened around Orpiah, Close to Delta State University.

Eyewitnesses say it’s starting to become a usual occurrence for policemen in the area to assault ‘stubborn’ drivers.

“It happens all the time and there is no one to report to because the inspector in charge of Orpiah is involved too. He and his boys have been assaulting taxi drivers on this axis,” another taxi driver told reporters.
