A woman identified as Chinyere Livina Awuru, has allegedly defrauded a former Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Ngozi Braide, of the sum of N3.7m.
It was gathered that Braide was swindled at Vadang Beauty & Cosmetics Store located in Maryland area of Lagos, where the suspect allegedly obtained items worth the said amount.
The suspect, who was later arrested by police operatives, was said to have stolen human hair worth N1.1m, wristwatch worth N1.6m and men accessories worth N1m, all belonging to CSP Braide.
She was thereafter charged before Ogba Magistrate’s Court for the alleged offence, where she pleaded not guilty.

Police prosecutor, SP Benson Emerhi, urged the Court to adjourn the matter to enable the police to prove that the defendant actually committed the alleged offence.
Presiding Magistrate, Mr. T.A. Adegun, who granted bail to the suspect, ordered her to be remanded at the Correctional Centre in Kirikiri town in Lagos, pending when she would perfect her bail conditions.
The case was, however, adjourned till March 10, 2021.
