A security consultant, Remy Uchendu has petitioned the Assistant Inspector General (AIG) of Police in charge of zone 9, Umuahia against a retired police officer, Linus Anyanwu over alleged intimidation and harassment.

Uchendu who is the Chief Executive Officer of Vanguard Security Services, alleged in his petition that Anyanwu had been terrorizing him and his workers at their work site at Ahia Ohuru (New market) in Aba.

He recalled how he earlier made a formal report to the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ndiegoro Police Division on the issue and when he wanted to take the matter to court, Anyanwu pleaded he would no longer intimidate him or his workers, but only to renege when the matter was stepped down.

The petitioner said that presently, Anyanwu had employed the services of one of his brothers who is an Inspector in the police force to further harass and intimidate him.

“The men from your zone led by a brother to the said retired officer, an Inspector are now after me for complaining against the retired officer at the Ndiegoro police station,” the petition read.

Uchendu is therefore appealing to the AIG to call his men to order and for them not be used to settle personal scores.
