How Fake Lawyer Was Arrested While Defending Case Inside Courtroom

IZUNNA OKAFOR

What could better be described as a dramatic scene ensured in a courtroom in Anambra State on Wednesday, June 13, as a suspected fake lawyer got arrested while trying to defend a case in the court.

P.M.EXPRESS reports that the authorities caught up with the impostor, who had allegedly been pretending to be a lawyer since December and appearing in Court since then.

It was scooped that the suspected fake lawyer’s dishonesty became apparent when he was unable to provide evidence of his assertions or even show that he had a basic understanding of the law during interrogation.

This was corroborated by a video currently trending online, which showed the self-acclaimed lawyer being handcuffed by the Police the moment the Magistrate ordered for his arrest, while he continued resisting arrest, insisting that he was a lawyer.
