Yesterday, EFCC arraigned Dr. Bright Echefu before Justice S.C Amadi of
the State High Court, Port Harcourt, Rivers on one-count charge
bordering on Issuance of Dud Cheque and Obtaining by false pretense. He
was said to have received a computer accessories, laptops and
stationeries which were delivered to his business premises at Touchville
Hotel, Ada George Road, Port Harcourt by the victim. After the supply,
he issued a post dated UBA cheque of N1.165m with a further agreement to
pay the balance of N150k on a later date.
But the cheque was returned unpaid due to insufficient funds in his account. All efforts made to recover the money by the victim, were futile. Justice Amadi adjourned the matter to 25th January, 2016 for hearing of bail application and ordered that Echefu be remanded in prison custody.
