FCT Police Suspend Enforcement Of Vehicle Tinted Glass Permit Pending Court Verdict

The Federal Capital Territory Police Command has temporarily halted the enforcement of the vehicle tinted glass permit after receiving a court directive.

FCT Police spokesperson Josephine Adeh told AIT, “Information reaching me from the office of the PRO is that the order has been received and the enforcement of the tinted permit is now on hold pending the court’s verdict.”

She added that the suspension will remain in effect until the court delivers its judgment. “We are waiting for the verdict. We are not against the courts, and we will continue to wait until we get a verdict,” Adeh said.

Adeh also clarified that the tinted glass permit was introduced for security reasons, noting that criminals had exploited vehicles with darkened windows to evade law enforcement. “The law was not made by us. We are enforcers. The policy was purely security-driven. Some criminals were using tinted vehicles to commit offences, making it difficult for law enforcement to identify suspects,” she explained.
