A report via PUNCH revealed that the Mummy of Lagos, as he is also known, may face fresh criminal charges over claims that he served his jail term in a private apartment and bribed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to drop money laundering charges against him.
According to the reports, a panel set up to investigate the claims recommended that he should face defamation and criminal charges.
Recall that a few weeks after Bobrisky was released from detention, controversial social critic VeryDarkMan shared a voice note of a conversation purportedly between Bobrisky and an individual, where the crossdresser allegedly said that he bribed EFCC officers with N15m to drop money laundering charges against him.
Bobrisky also claimed to have bribed officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service to do his six-month term in a private apartment.
Recall that the panel, while presenting its report, said there was no evidence that Bobrisky slept outside the Kirikiri Custodial Centre during his six-month sentence.
However, more reports stated that Bobrisky tarnished the image of the correctional service with false claims.
According to the report, the panel also asked the Department of State Services to investigate whether he bribed the EFCC or the correctional service directly or through a proxy.
If Bobrisky's bribery allegations are substantiated, the panel said the crossdresser should be charged with corrupt practices.
“The Nigerian Correctional Service should file defamation suits against Bobrisky under sections 373-375 of the Criminal Code Act for his false claims about bypassing the prison system, tarnishing the institution’s reputation," the report added.
The panel also indicted four prison officers who were recommended for disciplinary action under the NCoS’s condition of service, civil service, and applicable laws.
