Film maker, Seun Egbegbe implicates younger brother and others in his criminal case
You would recall that Seun Egbegbe was arrested with one Oyekan Ayomide in February for attempting to dupe Alhaji Isa Adamu pleaded.
Following the arrest of the three new suspects, the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID) of the Lagos State Police Command on Monday presented an amended charge before Justice Oluremi Oguntoyinbo of the Federal High Court in Ikoyi, Lagos to enable the police to arraign the suspects arrested in connection with the criminal offenses levied against Seun Egbegbe.
According to the amended charge sheet, the three were involved only in counts one and two, which accused them of conspiring to obtain the sum of N2,450,000 and 3,000 pounds sterling from one Alhaji Isa Adamu.
The offenses contravened the provisions of section 8 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006.
Kareem disclosed to reporters when he was paraded at the police command in Ikeja that he was never involved in his brother’s criminal acts, adding that Mr. Egbegbe only wanted to implicate him.
He also said that Mr. Egbegbe sent him a text while in prison custody. Kareem said:
”On the day Seun was arrested at Ikeja, it was my boss that told me that he saw the story on Facebook and went to Area F to see him,”
He added:
”But after then, he was charged to court and I didn’t go to see him, only for me to receive an SMS from him saying that he heard I was partying while he was languishing in prison.”
Seun Egbegbe is still facing an outstanding iPhone theft case, which was adjourned to later in April 2017.
