For allegedly demanding and collecting fifteen thousand naira with menace, one
27-year old Ikponmwosa Omorogbe has been remanded in prison custody on the
orders of Chief Magistrate Francis Idiake presiding over an Evbuoriaria
Magistrate Court sitting in Benin City, Edo State.

Omorogbe was alleged to have on 19th and 20th May 2013, threatened to burn down
a house at 3 Ehimwenma street, Benin City, upon failure by one Lucky
Agbonavbare, said to be his girl-friend to pay the money he claimed she
collected from him when they were dating.
Led in

on 19th May and another sum of four thousand totaling
fifteen thousand naira.

money in other for the accused person to quit the relationship with his
