The Nigeria Police Force has arrested a group of 14 persons, including a journalist, who allegedly posed as security personnel and raided the home of a Supreme Court Judge, Justice Mary Odili.
Parading the suspects at the police headquarters annex on Thursday, the force’s Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba, described the suspects as impostors, who were unknown to any of the nation’s security forces.
Recall that some days ago, armed personnel raided the Maitama residence of Mrs Odili, who is the wife of Peter Odili, a former governor of Rivers State.
Odili has been having a running battle with the anti-graft agency, EFCC.
Speaking at the parade on Thursday, Mba said that the 14 suspects and seven others, now at large, conspired to raid the residence following information that the Supreme Court Justice was keeping a large sum of money in foreign currencies.
Mba added that the leader of the illegal operation is a fake chief superintendent of police.
