The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has dropped the money laundering charges against the popular cross dresser and social media sensation, Idris Okuneye (Bobrisky).
This as Bobrisky pleaded guilty to the Naira abuse charge slammed on him by the Commission.
Bobrisky was initially arraigned on a six-count charge including money laundering by the EFCC at the Federal High Court Court, Ikoyi in Lagos
However, the prosecuting counsel, Suileman Suileman pleaded with the Federal High Court to strike out charges 5 and 6 of the 6-charges against the defendant.
The court therefore admitted his plea, as the accused had pleaded guilty to the charge of naira abuse on four different cases.
The prosecuting counsel further disclosed that the decision to strike out the money laundering charge against the defendant was taken at a late night meeting on Thursday in order to expedite the process of the court proceedings.
