Below is how Bellanaija exclusively reported the story;
"An Instagram User reached out to us about his friend, a rising
musician called Inas who is allegedly currently being held illegally by
the Nigerian Police in Makurdi. Music star Ruggedman also reached out
via email stating that he knows the musician and can vouch for the young
man.
"Ruggedman wrote: “Nigerian police will leave the real
criminals and go about arresting innocent and defenseless people. This
guy has a bright future and should not end like this!”
"According to Inas’ friends, he was arrested on Wednesday, 1st of
June after they left a video shoot late in the night. He was detained
and bailed on Friday with the sum of N20,000 but was told to return on
Saturday to pick up his phone because the policeman that seized it
wasn’t available at the time.
"When he returned on Saturday, the policeman reportedly told him
not to disturb him about the phone or he’ll re-arrest him. The young man
continued begging the policeman and the policeman told him to sit and
wait for him. After 4 hours of waiting, the policeman reportedly
handcuffed him and sent him along with 2 other guys arrested the night
before to the state police headquarters (CID department) on a new charge
of homicide (murder), armed robbery and conspiracy.
"His friend states that the clips of the video and behind the
scenes pictures of the video shoot were presented to the police but “because of the weight of the allegations made by the policeman, the case has been sent to court.”
"According to his friend who wrote in, “the case is still on
and Inas is going to be tried in court in Makurdi, Benue State for a
murder case he knows nothing about. Please share this information
because this issue is really unfair. He needs your prayers. I pray he’ll
be freed in court tomorrow.”"
