A woman, Laura Inmanze, who allegedly defrauded a Bureau de Change operator, Nura Mustapha, of N4.2 million, was on Wednesday brought before a Tinubu Magistrates’ Court, Lagos.

Inmanze, 24, was arraigned by the police before Mrs A. M. Olumide-Fusika on a two-count charge of obtaining money under false pretences and theft.

Prosecuting Inspector Ben Ekundayo alleged that the defendant committed the offences at about 2:30pm on June 21, at 7, Kalama Street, Lagos Island.

Ekundayo said the defendant and her husband, Tony (who is at large), obtained £9,000 Pounds from Nura Mustapha, a Bureau de Change operator, with the pretext of sending him the naira equivalent of N4.` million.

“Tony, a client of Mustapha, called him to send £9,000, that he had sent the naira equivalent to his wife’s account, who was on her way to Lagos from Owerri.

“Mustapha called the defendant to know if N4.2 million was truly sent to her account and she confirmed that her husband sent the money to her, so Mustapha forwarded the money to Tony’s account based on self-recognition.

“When the defendant arrived in Lagos and was asked for the money, she started giving excuses, tried to escape and was arrested,” he said.

According to Ekundayo, offences contravened Sections 287 and 314 of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State, 2015.

Magistrate, Mrs Olumide-Fusika granted the defendant N1 million bail with two sureties in the like sum, among other conditions.

The case continues on August 7.

Hi

Do for yourself first

Most of you clearly didn't read the article.

Just because the accused is a woman, the female judge hurriedly granted her bail.

Had the accused being a man, the feminist in the judge would be unleashed on the man, sending him straight to jail.

Crime everywhere

so una no go show us pix of the thief abi

Judging from the write up, something is telling me that the woman is in this hot pot of soup because she trust her husband to do the right thing and went ahead to collaborate with her husband thinking that before she got to lagos the said money would have been in her account cooling and awaiting onward transfer to the bureau de exchange guy. Poor woman.

Wetin i know sef.

u have senses

I am tire for naija. I don't even know how to trust anybody again no matter who u be. I have to recheck before I transact any business with u.

MUSTAPHA YOUR MONEY HAS GONE. U CAN NOT GET IN WHOLE AGAIN.

Trust, dont trust anyone especially at this period. Be careful in all transactions. I asked my boss to pay a supplier large sum money for delivery of equipment at once instead of in installments based on self recognition and the guy disappeared and almost got me into serious trouble.

But through some people who felt so bad for what he has he has done, I was able to track him with Police and my employer did not even believe my innocence until they met him at the Police station.
I can feel this lady's story, its possible the guy Tony is her boyfriend who presented her to the Mallam as his 'wife' and she accepted
