Embattled Senator, Dino Melaye, finally showed up and presented himself to the police yesterday in Abuja after days of hide-and-seek game between himself and the police.
Vanguard reports that Dino Melaye willingly came out of his hiding, received the trio of Senator Murray Ben Bruce, Senator Atai idoko and House of Representatives member from Rivers State, Boma Goodhead, who had come to his house in the company of his lawyer, Chief Mike Ozekhome.
According to the police, he reportedly surrendered at his residence in Abuja at about 3.pm where he was assisted to the police car by two security personnel and driven to the police headquarters.
On arrival at the police headquarters, he appeared very weak and could not walk by himself and had to be helped into the office where he slumped as he was breathing heavily.
The police in a statement issued later said
“Senator Dino Melaye is currently in Police custody for investigation, and subsequently, taken to Police hospital, Abuja for medical attention and he is in stable condition. Investigation into the case of criminal conspiracy and attempted culpable homicide against him is on-going. The case will be taken to court on completion of investigation”
Dino Melaye was moved to the police clinic in Garki, Abuja.
