A Gombe State magistrate’s court has ordered a 21-year-old man to be remanded in prison custody for allegedly issuing fake bank alert.
The accused person, Jessy Isah of No.1 Avenue Gwarinpa quarters, Abuja is facing a three-count charge of criminal conspiracy, breach of trust and cheating.
The court was told that on October 27, the accused allegedly conspired with one Bello alias Barry of Wuntin Dada quarters, Bauchi, who is now at large, to meet one Tochukwu Eze of Jekadafari quarters and collect electric cables worth N1.1 million.
The police prosecutor, Inspector Habibu Danjuma, told the court that the accused persons also generated a fake transfer of the said amount to his account number. However, when the police First Information Report (FIR) was read to the first accused person, he pleaded not guilty.
Chief Magistrate Japhet Maida, adjourned the case to November 29 to enable the police to conclude their investigation.
