Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73497, member: 636"] A Kaduna federal judge shut down bail for this guy, Bashir Ibrahim Bello, who got hit with fraud charges in three different cases while the EFCC sits on over 400 complaints about him. Justice R. M. Aikawa said the dude would probably bounce if they let him out because the allegations are massive and he has multiple prosecutions running at once. Bello runs Formal Act Legacy Limited and prosecutors say he was mixed up in a N30 billion scam involving fake promises, dirty money and keeping criminal proceeds. Between late October and early November, he got arraigned three separate times on different charges totaling 20 counts. The EFCC lawyer told the court that with hundreds of petitions stacked against him and all these active cases, the flight risk was way too high, and the judge agreed to keep him locked up. [/QUOTE]
