All pleaded \u201cnot guilty\u201d to the charges.<\/p>\n<p>In one of the counts, the suspects and Princess Gladys Okpalaeze (at large) \u201cfraudulently procured a Barclays Bank cheque dated 29th December 1994, in the sum of \u00a32,556,000,000 made payable to Gladstone Kukoyi &amp; Associates\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>EFCC said they claimed the cheque was for foreign investment \u2013 construction of three refineries and petrochemical complex in Nigeria \u2013 despite knowing it was false.<\/p>\n<p>The offence violates Section 1 (2) (a) of the Miscellaneous Offences Act, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 1990, and is punishable under the same section.<\/p>\n<p>At the resumed sitting, the eleventh prosecution witness (PW11) Ahmad Sulaiman, an EFCC official, testified.<\/p>\n<p>Sulaiman recalled that in 2005, a petition dated 19th October 2004, by Prince David Okpala alleged that a cheque of \u00a32.556illion was deposited in Union Bank but the bank refused to release it.<\/p>\n<p>He told the prosecution counsel Rotimi Jacobs (SAN) that the petitioner claimed that a search conducted revealed Union Bank had transferred \u00a32.159bn to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).<\/p>\n<p>The investigator said Okpala was invited and volunteered statements after which the EFCC wrote letters of investigation to the CBN.<\/p>\n<p>Sulaiman told the court that the apex bank responded, saying the account number was incomplete hence they could not authenticate the information.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWe wrote to Barclays Bank to confirm if the money was paid. We received a response stating that it was highly unlikely that a genuine cheque would have been written for the said sum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring investigation, there was no satisfactory evidence to make us continue with the investigation; so, we wrote to the complainant that there was no evidence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In January 2020, he continued, the EFCC received another petition. The complainants were invited and they made a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Sulaiman disclosed that a letter of investigation on Gazeaft Limited was written to the National Crime Agency (NCA)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were made to understand that the company, Gazeaft Ltd that allegedly issued the Barclays cheque is no more in existence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe investigation revealed that Gazeaft, a foreign company based in London, was dissolved in 1989 and the account of the company has since been closed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution tendered the response of the NCA alongside a Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) containing the Gazeaft\u2019s documents and files.<\/p>\n<p>Though the defendants\u2019 counsel opposed, Justice Liman held that the authentication of a document can be done by the person through which the document is being tendered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe document has been duly authenticated and hereby marked in evidence\u201d, the judge ruled.<\/p>\n<p>His Lordship, however, ruled that the witness might not be cross-examined on the document until the defendants had been served copies of the DVD.<\/p>\n<p>Justice Liman adjourned the case to May 24 and 25, 2022 for the continuation of trial.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
