Some police officers in Nigeria are alleged to have arrested a man and detained him for using football coach Mourinho as WhatsApp DP.
The man who has made the allegation resorted to Instagram to claim that the said officers even threatened to torture him, saying that he could use the photo to defraud people in his contact list.
According to him, they took him to their station and detained him but he refused to comply with their demands, so they left him more than an hour later.
