The Nigeria Police Force has announced the immediate suspension of the enforcement of the vehicle tinted glass permit.
It said it took this section after it received a court order asking it to suspend the exercise.
FCT Police Command’s spokesperson, SP Josephine Adeh, stated this during an interview on AIT on Wednesday.
She said the police made the decision when the court order halting the exercise was served, adding that the suspension would be in place until further notice.
She said, “Information reaching me from the office of the Force PRO is that the order has been received and the enforcement of the tinted permit is now on hold pending the court’s verdict.
“We are waiting for the final verdict. We are not against the courts, and we will continue to wait until we get a verdict.
“The law was not made by us. We are enforcers. The policy was purely security-driven. Some criminals were using tinted vehicles to commit offences, making it difficult for law enforcement to identify suspects.”
