Following his arrest, investigations carried out revealed the suspect had diverted the funds for personal use and issued a forged Bill of Lading to deceive the complainant. Upon his arraignment, the Honourable Court ordered the defendant be remanded at the Nigeria Correctional Service facility in Keffi, Nasarawa State, pending the hearing of his bail application scheduled for 17th July 2025.
