The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has vowed to impound all vehicles with tinted glasses due to the surging security crisis in the country.
News360 Info reports that the Commissioner of Police, CP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, disclosed this during a press conference at the command’s headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday.
Disu said nobody has the right to tint vehicle glasses, stating that tinted glasses are contributing to a lot of lawlessness in the country.
According to Disu, many rescued kidnapped victims have confirmed that tinted glasses made it impossible for people to know they were in distress.
He said, “We are clamping down on all commercial vehicles and everybody tinting their vehicles. We need to see people in their vehicles.
“A lot of rescued kidnap victims have told us that the tinted glasses made it impossible for people to know that they were in distress.
“A lot of the criminals, at the same time, cover their number plates. While some of them deliberately refused to put numbers on their vehicles.
“This is to warn all residents of the FCT that henceforth, Police will enforce all laws on tinted glasses. Nobody has the right to tint his or her vehicle.”
