I Was The Victim—But Became The Suspect

UK-based gospel singer and broadcaster Muyiwa Olanrewaju has recounted a disturbing incident he experienced earlier this year in the United Kingdom—a story that’s both unsettling and thought-provoking.

In a video posted to his Twitter, Muyiwa recounted how he was nearly robbed around 5:30 a.m. while driving to work.

A young white man allegedly attempted to break into his car and smashed his window. Muyiwa managed to fend off the attacker and safely got to work, where he called the police to report the incident.

“I told the police where the cameras were in that area,” he said, “the fact that the guy had smashed up my window, and the worrying and all that it caused.”



But the situation quickly flipped.

“Immediately after the police got in touch with me, the next thing was they now began an investigation where I was now the suspect,” he said. “Yes, I was now the suspect.”



Despite being the one who reported the attack and even pointing out the surveillance footage, he was called in for interviews and had to hire legal representation.

“The police never found the young man who they saw on camera, but I was being investigated for affray,” he revealed.

Three months later, the case was dropped due to a lack of evidence.
