Nigerian drug suspect bites Indian cop’s finger 
Published on February 23, 2013 by pmnews · 11 CommentsThree Nigerians have been arrested in Mumbai, India by agents of the country’s Anti-Narcotic Cell (ANC), after they recovered 100gms of cocaine on one of the Nigerians. On the streets, the drug is worth about $11,000.
During interrogation, the men identified themselves as Okoye Chukwansonso Emmanuel (32), Oddile Ezike Syril (31) and Wisdom Nwankwo (32).
The three stocky Nigerians did not easily surrender themselves to the police outside the Reay Road Rail Station, where they were arrested on suspicions of drug peddling.
The Nigerians resisted the arrest and tried to avoid the arrest.The times of India Online which reported the high drama said in the ensuing scuffle, one of the Nigerians bit a constable’s finger.
Constable M Tupe’s bleeding finger was treated at GT Hospital and he was later discharged.
According to the police, the ANC of Azad Maidan unit received a tip-off that a few Nigerian drug peddlers were likely to assemble near PD’Mello Road.
A six-member team, led by Sunil Kavlekar, went to the spot and noticed three Nigerian nationals moving about suspiciously.
On seeing the policemen, they hailed down a taxi and got in. When the policemen stopped the taxi for a check, the accused refused to get out of the vehicle.
“In a bid to flee, one of the men kicked the door so hard that it came off. The three men took up a fight with the policemen, but were proving to be difficult to overpower. The cops then signalled to a reserve team of four other policemen, who had spread out in the area suspecting mischief by the accused, for help,” said an officer.
In the melee, one of the accused bit constable Tupe’s finger on the right hand.
Even with the stand-by team and the public pitching in, the police reportedly found it difficult to overpower the three Nigerians. By then a passing patrol van of the Sewree police noticed the commotion and rushed to their counterparts’ aid. Finally, the three men were overpowered.
“We recovered 100 gm of cocaine worth Rs 6 lakh from them,” said deputy commissioner of police Kishore Jadhav.

Let the Indian Police know that there is a tribe in Nigeria whose criminal activities of its members continue to impact negatively on credible Nigerians all around the world. They should know a tribe called IGBO, they should look out for this group of Nigerians anywhere they can find them.
Na true u talk my broda.
@Umag In addition to your comment,the rest world should also know that those people who are spoiling Nigeria name abroad as drug pushers are those separatists and secessionists called BIAFRANS.They should be severely dealt with any time anywhere they are caught with drugs.THEY ARE NOT TRUE NIGERIANS.
My brother to Guinea Conakry.If police controll you at the only entrance and by road to Conakry.With your Nigeria Passport the first question Police will ask you is “Tu est IBO?”Meaning are you an Ibo.From an experience of a close friend of my who was on Transit in Moscow ,you could imagine Police at the Airport ask him KEDU ,if he respond Odinma ,he will undergo thorough check and scrutiny.
Police all over the world know that majority of people spoiling Nigeria name are Ibo.I am sorry if i have offended some people but this is a fact.
So, why do Nigerians want the Igbos to stay in Nigeria? Nigerians should leave Biafrans alone then, and go their own bloody way.
well for me i dont think is really fair to differentiate this way, am very critical of what this guys are donig in another countries selling harddrugs or engaging in all sorts of vices while destroying nigeria image abroad especially for good nigeria that there for good course like education, to work in hospital and more but having said these, the question should be directed to our legalise (crooks) politicians thas has done notihing than stealing/looting our nation to enriched themself & their families at the expense of common citizen .and i dont care where they are from being ibo,hausa,yoruba, ijaw, urobo and so on. what am saying in essence is if we can’t seperate our self when we share the oil money & commonwealth of the land together we shoudnt seperate when certain miscreants in our midst commit these sorts of crimes. mind you am yoruba so please dont say because am ibo or hausa that what is why am saying this but thats not the case but we should be honest & realistic popular adage says whatever affect eyes must infect nose .thanks ade.
MR UMAG AND anonymous BOTH OF YOU R FOOL BY HATE IBOS GOODTHINGS CAN NEVER NEAR UR COMPOUND FOOLS FAKE NIGERIAS
Mr Jackwana,even when your brother Ogbonaya Onovo was IG of Police ,he confirmed this.Go and make your research.Nobody hate Ibo,but Ibo hate themselves.
Those people talking evil of their fellow country men are idiots some of them are culprits. God will punish you people.

See these discriminating nuisance? Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa none is better than any. We have all wronged and damaged the image of Nigeria locally and internationally. Permit me to state here that the Hausas and Briitish people damaged this country to its present condition.
