The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has been given two weeks to complete its investigation into the charges leveled against suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Abba Kyari by the Police Service Commission (PSC).
After a report by the Federal Bureau of Investigation of the United States of America indicted him in a case of fraud involving Instagram celebrity Ramon Abbas, alias Hushpuppi, Kyari is being investigated by the police.
After the first report was filed, the commission requested that the police conduct a new investigation with a different panel.
Ikechukwu Ani, spokesperson of PSC, in a statement issued on Friday February 11, said the decision was taken at the continuation of its 14th plenary meeting, which ended in Abuja, on February 11, 2022, chaired by retired Inspector-General of Police and Chairman of the Commission, Alhaji Musiliu Smith.
The statement read; “The commission also directed that further necessary investigation should take half the time it took the Police to conduct the original investigation and that the investigation should be carried out by a different panel.”
