Preliminary Judge In Seun Egbegbe's Robbery Case Fines The Prosecutor For Moderate Pace, Dismisses Till November Seventh.


The preliminary of a Nollywood producer, Seun Egbegbe continued yesterday Nov fifth yet it was slowed down as the preliminary judge demanded that the case couldn't go ahead with the exception of the proceedings, Innocent Anyigor, pays a fine of N50,000 forced on him amid the past procedures. 


Equity Oluremi Oguntoyinbo, sitting at the Federal High Court in Lagos, dismissed the request by the police prosecutor that the N50,000 be deferred. The judge reproached the prosecutor for the moderate pace at which the case had continued since Egbegbe and his co-respondents were summoned in February a year ago.

The judge amid the past hearing granted N50,000 cost against Anyigor after the barrier direct raised complaint to the capability of a cop, Godwin Omaka, to affirm for the situation.


In perspective of the judge's refusal to forgo the fine, the prosecutor argued to be given two weeks to collect the cash. Yet, Justice Oguntoyinbo said she couldn't give any dismissal longer than seven days, taking note of that the case had just hauled.

She along these lines suspended the case till November 7, 2018, guiding the investigator to guarantee that the fine was paid.


Egbegbe and four others are accused of supposed sequential fakes including N39,098,100, $90,000 and £12,550. They were blamed for falsely getting the cash from no less than 40 Bureau De Change administrators in Lagos over a time of two years 2015 to 2017.

Egbegbe and his co-respondents, be that as it may, argued not liable to the 40 counts squeezed as a detriment to them. Those standing preliminary close by Egbegbe are Oyekan Ayomide, Lawal Kareem, Olalekan Yusuf and Muyideen Shoyombo.
