Recall that Faisal, who had been on the run since 2020, was tracked by DSS operatives in Karsana, Abuja, where he was picked up.

It would be recalled that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, had arraigned Faisal on three-count of money laundering and conspiracy.

He later jumped bail and fled the country, but the court continued his trial in absentia and sentenced him to 14 years in prison in 2021.
