How Kyari told me to allow him withdraw N15m from my client – Lawyer
According to a news that was published by Punch Newspaper, it was reported that a lawyer, whose name was given as Kabir Akingbolu has revealed how the suspended ACP Abba Kyari unlawfully arrested his client, Hafeez Mojeed in a commando style before the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Nigeria Police Force was disbanded in the year 2020.
He said that Kyari and his boys stormed his client’s house after he was arrested, collected about 32 valuables from him including their golden wedding rings, detained his client for months and used the opportunity to extort money from him.
He said that Hafeez was detained at SARS office in Ikeja and that while he was in Kyari’s unlawful detention, Abba Kyari completely milked out his client by withdrawing the N41m he saw in his current account and that as if that was not enough, he also attempted to withdraw the N15m he saw Mojeed’s second account but, he approached him at his office in Ikeja and asked him publicly on the reason why he withdrew his client’s money without court order but, Kyari took him to a secluded place and told him that, if he (Kabir) can allow him (Kyari) to withdraw the remaining N15m in his client’s account, he will give him N5m out of it but, Kabir said he declined the offer and headed to court.
