Armed police have arrested an Afghan special forces commando at a hotel in Manchester where he had been in quarantine with his family after arriving on an evacuation flight from Kabul, Sky News has learnt.

It is understood that he is being held under immigration powers and an investigation in still ongoing.

The pre-dawn raid is thought to have taken place on or around 31 August or 1 September and the individual is thought to be still in detention.

His case is not thought to be of concern to the Security Service, MI5.

The Home Office and the Ministry of Defence declined to comment.

A government spokesperson said: "We don't comment on individual cases."

A source, with knowledge of the case, said that the Afghan commando is understood to have arrived with his family in the UK on a British evacuation flight in August.

They were put up in a hotel in Manchester for their period of coronavirus quarantine because Afghanistan is on the government's COVID red list.

Greater Manchester Police referred a query on the arrest to the Home Office.

The UK evacuated more than 15,000 Afghans, British nationals and others from Afghanistan in just two weeks last month following the Taliban takeover.

The overwhelming majority of evacuees were fleeing in fear for their lives, including thousands of Afghans who worked as interpreters and other staff for the UK military and diplomats - facing death threats from the Taliban in return.

Members of the Afghan special forces who provided a vital role in tackling the terrorist threat in Afghanistan and served alongside their British and other NATO counterparts have also been given a safe haven, with hundreds more hoping to be allowed to resettle in Britain.

They are living in hiding in Afghanistan, terrified of being hunted down by the country's new Taliban rulers.

British security officials have been working hard to vet everyone who is granted refuge.

The "no-fly list" is designed to block individuals who are considered a security threat from reaching the UK.

In that incident, though, the government looked at the case and decided "they are not a person of interest" and no further action was taken.

Sam Afolabi’s Eatrich Farms Owes Staff and Investors N1bn but Arrests them for Protesting

03.09.2021

Police officers attached to Area F, Lagos State Police Command Headquarters, have arrested and detained six old staff and investors of Eatrich Farms, a Nigerian agricultural firm, for physical assault, a charge levelled against them by Bisi Dazuza, the company’s Group Managing Director, for daring to demand their almost one billion naira arrears.

The detainees had protested at the Lagos office of the company from Thursday to Friday afternoon when police officers were invited to arrest them.

“When they came to my office yesterday, they beat me and I even had a seizure in the process,” Dazuza told FIJ, justifying the reason she reported the case to the Police. “One of them threatened to kill me. After vandalising my property, they stole my money and laptop.”

However, one of the 12 investors that protested at the office but escaped police arrest insisted said Dazuza was falsely framing them up because of his influence within the Lagos Police Command.

“We didn’t steal any money from her bag as she claimed,” the investor, who asked not to be named, said. “The damage on the car was very minimal but you can’t totally blame those who did that.”

“Apart from our own investment in the company as staff, some other huge investors we brought in are already threatening to jail us if their funds are not refunded, yet the company’s CEO and the accountant are nowhere to be found.”

Dazuza didn’t deny the fact that these aggrieved people were owed by the company but she absolved herself of any wrongdoing.

“The case they are protesting about is not new,” she noted. “The case is before the Inspector-General of Police but I cannot be threatened for that. I am just two months old as a worker in this company.”

“These people will have to sign an undertaking not to come near me again before they can be released.”

FIJ gathered from reliable sources that many of the workers resigned from the company around June when they realised some of the advertised assets were not genuine.

By that time, hundreds of customers across Lagos and their branch in Ibadan, Oyo State, had invested over a billion naira in five years.

When contacted, Adekunle Ajisebutu, Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, assured FIJ that he would look into the case and ensure “both parties” were happy in their pursuit of justice.

Good day people.

I have thought hard on how to do this – in writing or via facebook live. I chose writing.

Against the instructions of my legal advisers, I am making an official statement regarding the Eatrich Farms influencing activities I carried out here between March and May 2021. Why? Because I have the duty to do so.

Let me first clarify that my brand influencing executed contract was with the media buying company for Eatrich Farms.
I was approached by the Media Buyer of the company and after series of questions, I was assured that it was a legitimate business with track record of paying its promised ROIs. This was a company that had adverts running on CNN and their billboards were everywhere. I was convinced about the prospects this had for people.

There is no need for any long prose because at the end of the day, people are languishing as a result of the company going bust as we have gathered.

I have tried to imagine myself losing even 50k in these trying times and I know that it will pinch me. This is the pain I feel for those who have lost their moneys in the various schemes advertised by Eatrich Farms. Some with life threatening conditions that require medical attention but with no access to their money!

I want to encourage all affected persons to pursue the recovery of their investments in the company using all legal remedies available to them.

I have done influencing for brands in the past including even my own competitor and there were no issues at all.
This one is really shocking to me.

It will be very insensitive of me to keep mute over Sam Afolabi's Eatrich company and how they have been unable to Pay investors either their capital or ROI back since June.

I was never an ambassador for the company and my stint there was very brief..

If you work closely with the man, you won't suspect any irregularities.

I was his personal photographer for less than two weeks before I was promoted to head a magazine company we were to start up.

I also did some PR for his foundation in Ondo state which didn't end very well and as I type this, I can't even show my face in my own town because the man I worked for organised a skill acquisition training for Ondo youths, made several promises to them and the facilitators and left them hanging till this moment...

I recruited my own team personally for the magazine I was to run
We worked for a full month and some days and never got paid till this moment.

I never campaigned or made posts for eatrich farms or for anyone to bring in their money and in fact I can mention three to five people on this space that I personally intervened into their investment and made sure they got their money back late May and early June..
(Please if you are reading this you can kindly testify as I don't want to mention you).

I questioned a lot of things in my two months there

And when it was no longer what I expected.
I left unceremoniously...

Me and my team left without our pay..

I even lost my car to the whole wahala based on say I get debt I couldn't repay.. (another story for another day)

I made a mistake trying to defend him last month over unpaid investment as he did zoom meetings, set new dates and assured everyone as usual that he'd do the needful.

I believed him as my then boss and I urged everyone to still give them time that they'd rise.

One of the many wahala I am into with the company is the loan he used us staffs to apply from sterling bank and as I type this, there is 2.3million naira in my sterling bank account on behalf of eatrich farms I cannot access .

I have written mails to Sterling to let them know I am no longer interested in whatever he wants to use that money for and that I want out of anything that concerns Eatrich Farms.

Everyone has a right to be angry and point fingers.

But I Kolawole didn't tell anyone or influence anyone to bring in their money into that company

And as the company left many investors heart broken, the staffs who worked with him too are not left out!

I can go on and on but let me stop here ..

This is to clear the air on those saying "ehn I worked for him, I influenced for him"
Nah!
All I ever promoted was the magazine !
And that magazine was my brain
My vision
It didn't work out
Me and my team left!!!

Igi ogede oni wo pawa o!

I can't believe i read this crap to the end.
