A short while ago, we reported that Naira Marley’s fraud case had been adjourned till tomorrow, Wednesday, October 23, 2019.
Reacting after news of adjournment surfaced, the singer wrote on Twitter: ‘In Nigeria, they will arrest u first then they will try find out ur crime after.’
Back in March, Naira Marley was arrested on his birthday by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on allegations of advance-fee scam and related cyber crimes.
After his arrest, the anti-graft agency filed 11 charges against Naira Marley bordering on alleged cybercrime and identity theft. The alleged crimes were in contravention of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act and the Cyber Crimes Act, which the artiste risks seven years in jail if found guilty.
He has since been released on bail.
