The Commissioner of Police, Alhaji Lawan Ado, told newsmen in llorin that the command swung into action immediately after receiving a distress call on the arrival of the suspects at the station.

He said that the suspected political thugs took to their heels before the arrival of policemen.

The spokesperson of the Police Command in the state, Mr. Samuel Okasanmi, however, said that no violence was unleashed, as the hoodlums ran away before the arrival of the police.

He said that the command was still investigating those behind the incident as well as keeping vigil on the station to ensure safety of lives and property.
