A federal maximum in Lagos has sentenced and sentenced to an Igboezue Emeka a month in prison for money laundering.
The convict was arrested on February 12, 2025 at the Metala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos for agents of the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, for a declaration of false currencies for a sum of $ 40,000 (forty thousand dollars of the United States of the United States).
The Commission of Economic and Financial Crimes, EFCC, announced this in a position on its X Management on Friday.
EFCC declared that the NCS, on the same day, had given him to his office of the Zonal 1 of Lagos for new investigations and prosecution.
Consequently, he was prosecuted before Judge Aoowoeye of the Federal Superior Court in Lagos, on Friday, April 4, 2025, for a single money laundering content.
He declared himself guilty of the position when he was read.
After his guilt statement, the prosecutor's advisor, Nnaemeka Omewa, asked Michael Olayemi, an EFCC operation, to review the facts of the case.
Olayemi told the court on the events that led to the defendant's investigation.
Omewa, from then on, tried to present the statement of the accused and the monetary exhibition recovered from him.
The judge admitted the documents and marked them as exhibitions.
Subsequently, Judge Owoeye found Igboezue guilty and sentenced him to a month in prison, with effect as of the date of his arrest on February 12, 2025.
