The
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, will on Thursday, May 12, 2016 arraign a retired
Commissioner of Police, Mohammed Sambo, before a Federal Capital Territory High
Court sitting in Maitama, Abuja on one-count charge
bordering on criminal breach of trust and obtaining money by false pretence
to the tune of N10,000,000.00m( Ten Million Naira).
Sambo,
who connived with one Nuhu Bello Dabai, had allegedly duped the complainant,
Abdul Malik Bello, Managing Director/ CEO, Ideal Sunbeam International Company
Limited, the sum of N10, 000, 000.00m, after claiming that he needed to defray
both the survey and other preliminary expenses involved in the execution of a
contract worth over N1bn (One Billion Naira) purportedly awarded him by Zamfara
State Governor, Abdul Aziz Abubakar Yari.
The
accused person was subsequently arrested and granted an administrative bail by
the Commission on January 19, 2015.
He,
however, jumped the administrative bail granted him on April 7, 2015.
After
playing hide-and-seek, he was eventually re-arrested on Wednesday, May 3, 2016.
