Alleged money laudering: Aisha Achimugu makes court apperance

Date:

Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Wednesday, arrived at the Federal High Court in Abuja with the businesswoman, Aisha Achimugu, as ordered by the court.

Achimugu, who was sandwiched by two female EFCC’s officers, arrived in court at about 11:35am.

NAN reports that Justice Inyang Ekwo had, on Monday, ordered the industrialist, alleged to have fled the country, to honour the invitation by the anti-graft agency on Tuesday at 12 noon.

Justice Ekwo, who gave the order in a short ruling, also ordered the EFCC, upon the appearance of Achimugu at its office, to return with her to court on Wednesday for report.

Achimugu was, however, said to have been arrested by the EFCC’s operatives on her arrival abroad at about 5am and kept in custody.

She declared “hunger strike” in the EFCC custody after her arrest by operatives of the commission.
