Please dear nairalanders.... This is a serious issue that involves the POLICE as I speak/type.. My close pal's BROTHER IS GOING TO JAIL FOR A CAR HE KNOWS NOTHING OF....

he is a mechanic(repairer of cars and all its parts) he is well known by every body in his location and is very good at doing his work and his customers loved him for his sincerity.

On a very good afternoon he was approached by a customer who wants to REPAIR HIS CAR..after all negotiation and bargaining.... He agreed to the price and gave the CAR KEYS to the man(the mechanic)... To test drive the car after everything.... And so he left the mechanic shop.

It wasn't up to 25mins, he was approached by POLICE and another owner of the same car that was dropped at his shop 25mins ago.... And the police men arrested the mechanic Guy saying he is a criminal that he stole the car from the owner in BENIN CITY, that the owner of the car packed the car inside his compound and all of a sudden the car was no where to be found. That they have been looking for the car for almost TWO WEEKS now that they got information from sombody that's how they got to know that the car is packed in his (mechanic guys) shop..

The mechanic guy is in police custody as we speak... And he kept calling the guy that brought the car to his shop and guy kept telling him he is not in town that he will be back in some hours hours time... It has been like that for almost 5days now... The man refuses showing up for his self acclaimed car.

Now they are planning on transferring the case from warri to BENIN tomorrow or next.... But they gave the mechanic guy some conditions if he want the case to be sealed..

The police men and the owner of the stolen car has told the mechanic guy to pay up #300,000 for the case to die down and for the replacement of some properties that are not inside the car at this moment.


Now... We beginingto suspect that this whole thing is a planned work and a SETUP Plan against the mechanic guy... Cos if you look at it very well you would notice that a stolen car from Benin to warri can not be tracked down immediately after the person who stole the car dropped it inside a mechanic shop and all of a sudden the owner of the so called car shows up from no where all the way from Benin? With the police?? How is that possible? I don't understand... It must be a set up...

DDEAR NAIRALANDERS... We planning on hiring a a lawyer and maybe take this issue to the court tomorrow... PLEASE WHAT IS YOUR BEST ADVICE FOR US AT THIS MOMENT? SHOULD WE OR SHOULD WE NOT INVOVETHE LAWYER? what other steps do you think we can take against this case?...

Please mature responses.... Thanks in advance....

.... Please I need urgent replies now.... Abeg ooo


Forgive my typo errors

Get a lawyer.

From the story, i think its a set up from the guy who brought the car to be repaired.
.

hmm. this is a tough one, but from my own view of things, this is a set up. I will advice him to get a good lawyer and take the case to court instead of paying the 300k that was demanded. he has a high probability of winning the case. I wish him luck. blessed be.

A good one

Police don't like lawyers


Involve a lawyer and watch Dm run from the case

This is a clear case of a set up. They should involve a lawyer and head to the net work service provider of the man who brought the car to his workshop. Track his location with the number he is being called with, then have him arrested. The man might have gotten to know that the car was being tracked and they were about to catch up with him he then decided to dump it at mechanic workshop making him a scape goat.

After my first comment, i just cant stop thinking about the pain one passes thru for being wrongly accused.

Infact, Op add me on whatsapp 07053MODIFIED so that i can connect u to league of lawyers who will help u fight this case with almost little or no fund involved.

Modified:

Now i see it's a clear case of well planned setup. Like others have rightly said, Oga biko involve a lawyer and watch how policemen will put their tail between their legs.

Sorry I. Pray God vindicate you....




But I can assure you I my country, there are many innocent people paying for sins they knew nothing about!


#peace

Haha.. Why the fuse? Tell the man (mechanic)to relax ,this is a planned setup probably by one of his rich client he might have early offended.

Solution :

1: Be ready to spend money to finish the case

2: Get a good Lawyer

3: cooperate to pay the 300k Bribe ( but don't )

4: Get a documented evidence that they requested for a settlement of 300k

5: Write a letter to the state commissioner of police to transfer the mechanic to police headquarters for safety because they may attempt to kill the guy in his cell

6:Then head to Court

7: Add the most important ingredient by praying because the case has been planned and finished before the guy got arrested

8: Wait till Court discharge and Aquit the Mechanic

9: Don't forget to publish the names of the police officerS that mastermind the crime here on Nairaland because they will be dismissed

10: Thank me later

I Raised !!!

Hmmm...na wa o


Benin, PH and Warri are so notorious for stolen cars.

Receiving Stolen Goods is a Criminal Offense under the Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria..





#Ignorance is not an excuse under the Law.

It is your responsibility to carry out due diligence on the property before receiving or purchasing it.

Once you get to the police station and say


I HAVE CONTACTED MY LAW....


Before you put the YER,police go don dey beg you

Justice demands that dey investigate better by tracing the phone number the mechanic was given

Superbreed:
Sorry I. Pray God vindicate you....

Amen

Only God can help him out of this

Police are always looking for ways to defraud unsuspecting victims!

The guy who brought he car connived with the policeman and another friend to pull a fast one on the mechanic.

Since the mechanic can call the guy who brought the vehicle in the first place, why can't they track him? Or the police have suddenly forgot their job which is to solve crimes?

Why would they demand for money to let go of the situation if this wasn't a set up in the first place?

How come the police just showed up from nowhere after the guy who brought the car to the mechanic had left?

So many questions begging for answer. Ask your friend to get a lawyer immediately!!

Got to the police ppro office in ikeja and tell auty dolapo, she will listen to you and follow up to the case.....not only lawyers o

And this is how thousands of poor innocent people languish in jail for crimes they know nothing about. God help us! Poverty shall never be our portion.
