Drama as police arraign Kano actress for bribery

The Kano State Police Command has arraigned a popular Kannywood actress, Amal Umar, before a Kano-based Magistrates’ Court No 24, Gyadi-Gyadi, over an alleged attempt to bribe a police officer.

“The motive of the alleged attempt to bribe a police officer was to halt police investigation into alleged financial misappropriation perpetrated by the actress’s boyfriend, identified as Ramadan Inuwa,” according to the prosecutor.

The prosecutor stated that the offence violates Section 118 of the Penal Code, prohibiting the bribery of a police officer.

However, the attempt was prevented by the police, who arrested the actress, with documentary evidence of the alleged bribery scandal, a development that informed her subsequent arraignment before the Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday. A complaint was filed by one Alhaji Yusuf Adamu through his lawyer, H.I. Dederi, to the Assistant Inspector General, Umar Mohd Sanda, on August 18, 2022, with a rundown of how Ramadan Inuwa allegedly misappropriated a substantial amount of money, totalling N40m, in his cell phone business.
