Mohammed Isah was yesterday sentenced to 2 years in jail by an Ikeja Magistrates’ Court, Lagos State, for defrauding the Anambra and Ondo states Commissioners of Police of N150,000 and
N4,000 respectively.
Isah operated in Anambra, Ondo and Lagos states between June and December 7, 2015, before he was arrested in Lagos. Anambra Commissioner of Police had paid him N150k after he alleged that the cops from the command swindled him of N270k.
He also accused a team of 6 policemen on patrol in Akure, Ondo State, of extorting N140k from him. But the state CP gave him N4k for reporting the matter. His allegation led to the dismissal of the 6 cops.
Isah normally implicates policemen by taking the number plates of their patrol vehicles to the state police headquarters on the claims that they extorted money from him. He does this with the sole aim of getting compensated.
He had gone to the Lagos State Police Command to claim that some policemen attached to the Rapid Response Squad collected N188.2k from him, when a police officer who was in Ondo when he did something similar, saw him and exposed him.
