EFCC Foils Man’s Attempt To Smuggle In Hard Drugs For Detained Son
The agency said the younger Otuyalo was recently arrested after a criminal case of money laundering detected in the United Kingdom was reported against him. The case, which involved £45,000, was a fragment of a wider one involving about £500,000 for which he has been declared wanted by London’s Metropolitan Police.
The commission said the suspect had been on the wanted list of the International Police, Interpol, before the petition was filed at the EFCC, Ibadan zonal office. The officers of the Nigerian Interpol were already in contact with the commission in respect of the said case before the suspect’s father attempted to smuggle in the hard drug for him.
The statement said further investigations are ongoing and that the commission intends to hand him over to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, for possible prosecution of the suspected narcotic case.
