Buhari reportedly arrested by Interpol arm of ICC in the UK, later granted bail

Accoding to Elombah.com, revelations have emerged as to the whereabouts of Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, when he obviously missing from public glare after delivering his Chatham House address in London, the United Kingdom.

No one had set their sights on the General, abroad or at home, since his Chatham House appearance on the 26th of February 2015.

Available information says that Buhari may have been arrested in the United Kingdom hence his disappearance for days without any trace.

On inquiry from Nigerians in the UK, it was learnt that Buhari was whisked off by a British arm of the Interpol (International Police) on an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court, Hague.

Further revelations showed that a Criminal Case against Humanity, filed by one Professor Goran Sluter, an international Lawyer from the University of Amsterdam, sometime in the first week of February will be due for hearing on the second week of April.

The ICC took the advantage of raising an arrest warrant to secretly arrest the General and be kept until the court hearing.

The reason was that in an event that the opposition party was to win the March 28th elections, it would be difficult to arrest the General to face his charges.

The General will be standing trial for crimes against humanity during the 2011 post-election violence.

It was also gathered that when the Interpol arrived the venue, APC Leaders like Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi had quietly scampered for safety to sever any chances of being called upon to accompany Buhari.

Findings revealed that the General was actually kept in the custody of the police in an undisclosed location for four days while members of the opposition rallied round for his bail.

In order for him to be released, some members were held as surety for the General with some advance bonds, made by the APC.

Buhari had in February, traveled to the UK for a “working visit” according to an official statement by his party, the APC.

Days after his trip generating raging controversy as to the original intent of his Journey, Buhari appeared to deliver a lecture at Chatham House, London.

After his lecture, he went silent.

Few days later, reports of his impending return filtered the mediasphere.

Dispelling inquiries as to his whereabouts all the while, a source in Buhari’s camp said General Buhari stubbornly stuck to his decision to rest for 10 days after the Independent National Election Commission (INEC) postponed the elections, which were initially scheduled for February 14th.

Buhari’s absence have fueled more speculations over his health concerns even when he dispelled insinuations over it during a question and answer session after his speech at Chatham House, declaring that his Doctors have already satisfied him fit.

Upon arrival, Buhari landed into the hands of curious waiting Journalists at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

Asked whether he went abroad to seek medical attention, Buhari said he took some time off the campaigns to get some rest.

“I just went off for a couple of weeks to rest. That’s all I did”, he said.

Pressed further by Journalists on whether he ever visited any hospital while holidaying in UK, he said “What is wrong for me to go the hospital? Am I not here now? Aren’t you seeing me? Are you seeing a sick man?” (Source: Elombah.com)
