In recent development in the domestic violence saga involving Nollywood actress, Mercy Aigbe and her husband, Lanre Gentry, the latter has been remanded in Kirikiri Prison for alleged wife battering.

He was arraigned at an Ikeja Magistrate Court on a three-count charge of domestic violence, assault, and threat to life which he pleaded not guilty to.

Gentry was granted bail in the sum of N500,000 with two sureties in the like sum. The sureties must show proof of tax payment and own houses in Lagos with title documents. He was also ordered to be remanded in prison until he meets the bail terms.

Police prosecutor, Inspector N. Peter told the court that Gentry on April 17, conducted himself in a manner likely to cause breach of peace by constituting nuisance and behaving in a disorderly manner in a public place.
