Bobrisky who was arrested on Monday by officers of the Nigeria Immigration Service at Seme border, in Badagry, while attempting to flee the country, was handed over to operatives from FCID Annex, Alagbon.

“We have gone to court to get a detention order from a court to keep Bobrisky pending the outcome of investigation or further directive from higher authority,” the source who does not want his name in print said.

After his arrest, he was taken to the office of the Controller of Immigration, Seme Area Command, where he stayed till Tuesday before he was moved to Alagbon under armed escort.

His arrival at FCID also created a mild drama, according to another police source who said officers went to have a glimpse of him in one of the offices where he was kept before he was taken to the office of the Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG), in charge of FCID.

He was interrogated briefly by detectives upon his arrival.
