The involvement of human rights activist and lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, adds an interesting twist to the story, as he has raised concerns about the alleged illegal arrest and unlawful detention of Brezhnev. However, the police have firmly denied these claims, citing a proper remand order issued by the Igbosere Magistrate Court 21 in Lagos.
A crucial aspect of this review lies in the police’s denial of any filial relationship between Deputy Inspector-General, Frank Emeka-Mba, and the complainant, Hillary Emeka-Mba. The police clarified that the resemblance in names is purely coincidental, dismissing Effiong’s allegations of undue influence against the senior officer.
