According to Police prosecutor, DSP Collage Bob investigations by the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) revealed that the accused persons actually committed the act and that such information was discovered not to be true.

I feel 14years is way too much. If bail is N300,000 I wonder how much the fine will be.

I think they are just being made scapegoats for something much bigger.
 
It seems dumb that they would send letters unless they had their own motives. But then again, they could just be the unfortunate scapegoats Nigerians tend to need badly these days
