A lot of comments have been made by different kinds of people, some from lack of understanding.</em></p> <p><em>“When you have a Joint Task Force, Joint Task Force involves members of the armed forces, that is the army, navy airforce, we have the police, the DSS, every other security agency is part of it. So when we have arrests, we have a joint investigation team, it is not like the army is taking laws into their hands. Once we are deployed on operation, we have the right and the mandate to arrest all acts of criminality within that area.</em></p> <p><em>“They were legally deployed and with their mandate, they are authorised to make arrests, they are authorised to interrogate, because we have a joint interrogation centre that works together as a team under the Joint Task Force.”</em></p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.naijanews.com/2024/04/03/okuama-we-are-allowed-to-arrest-interrogate-civilians-military/">Okuama: We Are Allowed To Arrest, Interrogate Civilians – Military</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.naijanews.com">Naija News</a>.</p>
