She said that even while she pleaded with them to spare her and her three months old pregnancy, they continued, kicking her stomach severally, and hitting her waist with the butt of a gun.
She further disclosed that the officers bundled her to the station and further refused to take her to the hospital as she complained of sever abdominal pains.
