The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has set up a disciplinary panel to investigate two officers accused of assaulting a woman during a raid on Regional Hotel in Lagos.

EFCC spokesman Dele Oyewale made this known via a statement on Sunday, June 30, 2024.

Oyewale added that the errant officers would appear before the panel on Monday, July 1.

Oyewale said the EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, set up the disciplinary team to look into the case of the two errant officers of the anti-graft agency who allegedly assaulted a female staff of Regional Hotel in the Ojo area of Lagos.

The officers were sighted in a viral video assaulting the staff of the hotel in an early morning sting operation on Thursday, June 27.
