The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has explained why it arrested and arraigned Samuel Ojeogwu, popularly known as Sammy West, the brother of Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels.
According to the Command’s spokesperson, SP Josephine Adeh, security operatives received a petition on October 28 against Sammy West and three others, alleging criminal conspiracy, trespass, assault, criminal intimidation, theft, and cyber-bullying.
Adeh said Sammy was invited for questioning but failed to honour the invitation, which led to his arrest in Lagos on the authority of a court-issued warrant. He was later taken to Abuja for further investigation.
