The defendants, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.

The prosecutor, Insp Benedict Aigbokhan, told the court that the defendants and other commercial motorcyclists at large committed the offences on Nov. 22 and Nov 25, at Jakande Estate Gate at Ejigbo.

He said that the defendants conspired and inflicted injuries on the police officers on duty.

According to the prosecutor, the officers included Insp Alulu Tunde and Wasiu Isiaka from Ejigbo Police Station.

Aigbokhan said the defendant also damaged two police patrol vans.

He said the defendants conducted themselves in a manner likely to cause breach of public peace by obstructing free flow of traffic on a busy road.
