A federal high court has given the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) permission to detain the former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, for 14 days to allow thorough investigation of his alleged involvement in name dropping and extortion.
The order was necessitated following fresh allegations levelled against the ex-lawmaker by the complainant, Alhaji Sani Dauda.
Shehu Sani was arrested on New Year‘s Eve by the EFCC operatives in Abuja for allegedly extorting $10,000 from Dauda, the Chairman of ASD Motors.
