John Adindu Nweke, Anike Igwe Stephen, and Kelechi Chetachi Emenike were, on Wednesday, arraigned before a Federal High Court in Lagos for allegedly defrauding Konga, an online retailer, of N35 million.

According to the Special Fraud Unit (SFU) of the Nigeria Police Force, the accused persons carried out the fraud around April 2015 by obtaining iPhones valued at N35million for which they issued United Bank of Africa and Fidelity Bank cheques, which were not honoured when presented.

The cheques were not honoured because their accounts did not have sufficient funds to cover the transaction. They were also alleged to have received the phones.

According to the prosecutor, Effiong Asuquo, a Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP), the alleged offences are contrary to Section 1(1)(a)(b) of the Advance Fee Fraud Act and Section 15 (1)(a)(ii)(3) of the Money Laundering Prohibition Act 2004 as amended.

The accused persons pleaded not guilty to the charges. Consequently, the prosecutor urged the court to remand them in prison custody pending trial.

Lawyer to the accused persons, Mr. E. Sunday, did not oppose the submissions of the prosecution. The presiding judge, Justice Abdulaziz Anka, ordered that the three accused persons be remanded in prison custody and adjourned till 10 October for the commencement of trial.
