BREAKING: Presidential Panel to dispatch detectives abroad to comb Magu’s bank accounts

TRACKING____The Presidential Panel currently investigating the former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, is set to dispatch detectives abroad to comb banks with funds reportedly hidden by the embattled anti-graft agency.

TrackNews Online earlier reported that Magu is being investigated by an inter-agency panel consisting of representatives from different security outfits in the presidential villa. He was arrested last week Monday and is still being held in detention by the Police.
