Supreme Court judge in Nigeria charged with money-laundering

Written By CGTN Africa on Tuesday, Nov 22, 2016 | 07:18 AM

 
In Nigeria, a Supreme Court justice has been charged with money laundering and immigration offences. Sylvester Ngwuta is one of seven judges arrested last month during a nationwide sting operation. It's part of President Muhammadu Buhari's campaign to stamp out corruption in Nigeria. Ngwuta is accused of laundering over one-point-7 million dollars between January and October this year. Prosecutors also allege he has multiple unauthorized passports, including diplomatic travel documents. The 65-year-old has pleaded not guilty to all the charges. He'll stand trial in December.
