Lagos State Police Command has redeployed the Denton Divisional Police Officer (DPO), CSP Adegoke Akinlade, after he lost his service pistol during an alleged sex romp with a 29-year-old woman, Jennifer Madueke.

KanyiDaily had reported how CSP Atilade invited Madueke to his office on Friday and slept with her till Saturday morning, leading to his missing service pistol.

Atilade was said to have detained Madueke over his missing gun at the Denton Police Station, Ebute Meta, Lagos, where she was allegedly tortured to confess to the crime.
