The duo of Judith Oluchi Nwoguete and Joy Atora were on Thursday arraigned before Justice M.O. Opara of the State High Court on a 4-count charge bordering on alleged issuance of Dud Cheque and obtaining money under false pretense by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
The commission in a statement said the offence runs contrary to Section 419 of the Criminal Code Cap c37, laws of Rivers State of Nigeria 1999.
The women were accused of diverting their victim’s money for their personal use and, thereafter, presented cheques which were dishonoured by the bank.
