EFCC plans to release my mugshot with money laundering charges – VeryDarkMan raises alarm
Embattled social critic, VeryDarkMan, has cried out following the alleged plan by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to release his mugshot with money laundering.
This comes three days after his release from the EFCC detention on Wednesday.
Ekwutosblog recalls that VeryDarkMan was arrested after his visit to Guaranty Trust Bank, GTB branch in Abuja to address alleged unauthorised withdrawals from his mother’s account.
His arrest sparked outrage online, with many netizens including celebrities, and politicians demanding his immediate release.
Responding to the demands, EFCC in a statement, stated that VeryDarkMan was arrested because of the multiple petitions against him by unnamed individuals accusing him of “financial malfeasance”.
