After 51 days in EFCC custody, Mompha finally gained his freedom after he met with bail conditions, N100 involved

 

Alleged internet fraudster, Ismaila Mustapha popularly known as Mompha has finally received freedom from EFCC custody after meeting the bail conditions.

Recently, a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos granted N100m bail to the Dubai-based businessman over alleged N33billion fraud.

 

In October 19, 2019, The Economic Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) arrested him. This happened at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja and remanded in their custody following a court order.

 

Meanwhile, the suspected fraudster, Mompha instituted a fundamental rights enforcement suit against EFCC for detaining him beyond the constitutionally stipulated days without charging him to court.

 

In the commencement of the trial Mompha also pleaded not guilty to a 14-count-charge bordering on fraud offences.

He was subsequently granted N100million bail which he has successfully fulfilled.
