The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Monday arraigned a Chinese national, Liu Beixiang, also known as Lao Liu, before Justice Ayokunle Faji of the Federal High Court in Lagos, over an allegation of providing false information to a government official.
Liu is facing a one-count charge bordering on deliberately supplying false information to an officer of the EFCC during the course of official duty.
EFCC told the court that Liu, sometime in December 2024 in Lagos, gave information that he knew to be false to an officer of the Federal Government of Nigeria in the discharge of his duties.
The defendant pleaded not guilty when the charge was read to him. (Punch)
