    From accusation to execution: Nigeria’s mob justice crisis (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    In Nigeria, an accusation of theft can turn a calm crowd into a dangerous mob within minutes. Someone shouts, “Ole!” “Barawo!” “Onyeoshi!” or “Thief!” and people begin to gather. Before anyone asks what happened or whether the allegation is true, sticks, stones, and other objects may become weapons. By the time the police arrive, the accused person may already be badly injured or dead. Jungle justice, or mob violence, is an illegal act where a crowd bypasses the legal system to punish a suspect
