While inside her car, the actress, who recently got into trouble over her GWR attempt, was seen recording the women and boasting about their “lesson.”
Another clip showed the two in custody at the Enu-Owa Police Division as the influencer snapped photos of them.
The incident quickly drew criticism, with many Nigerians accusing both the influencer and the police of breaching ethics and trampling on the suspects’ rights.
Police condemn Mady Kiss’ actionIn a statement posted on its official X handle on Tuesday, the Ondo State Police Command confirmed that preliminary investigations showed Mandykiss carried out the arrests without the official accompaniment of police personnel.
The statement read:
“Instead, she was reportedly aided by her internet followers, who provided information leading to the location of the suspects. She later took them to the police station, recorded them, and posted their images online — an act contrary to police procedure and the legal principle of presumption of innocence.”Commissioner of Police, CP Adebowale Lawal, described the incident as a “clear lapse in supervisory responsibility and professional judgment” by the DPO.
He ordered the officer’s redeployment and reiterated that the command “will not condone any conduct capable of undermining public confidence in the Nigeria Police Force.”
The CP also reminded influencers and the general public that photographing or recording suspects in custody is illegal and violates the Nigeria Police Code of Conduct.
Lawal added that both complainants and suspects deserve equal protection under the law.
He assured Nigerians that disciplinary actions are being strengthened to prevent future incidents.
