Former IG, CP arraigned over fraud (Nation)

The Independent Corruption Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) on Wednesday re-arraigned a former Inspector-General of Police, Sunday Ehindero, and a former  Commissioner of Police, John Obaniyi, over alleged  N16.4 million fraud.

The accused were again arraigned on a 10-count amended charge before an FCT High Court sitting at Apo.

The charge borders on conspiracy, fraud and making false statement. The former police chiefs, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.

The prosecutor, Mr O.G. Iwuagwu, told the court that the accused committed the offences from May 2006 to November 2006.

He said that the duo conspired and used their positions to place N500 million in two fixed deposit accounts. Read more
