It is Illegal To Pay Police or Any Security Agency For Recovery Of Any Stolen Money or Items.
By Onyekachi Umah,Esq.
(Tip 135)
It is the duty of Police and other security agencies to protect lives and property. They investigate crimes, recover stolen money and items for FREE because government pays them salaries and provides or should provide other needed supports.
Hence, It is Illegal To Pay Police or Any Security Agency For Recovery Of Any Stolen Money or Items. No security agency is permitted to demand for any payment as success fee or mobilisation fee. They are not entitled to any percentage of recovered stolen property. All services rendered in police station are FREE including Bail and Recovery of stolen items. Report any police officer or security agent that demands money to do its work or for doing its work. Stop corruption!
My authority; Police Act.
