A staff of the bank plugged an Hp Elitebook laptop into his branch network where he was working for about 16 years as an IT representative with the bank.
He gave them remote access to his cohorts for them to perpetrate the fraud on the network of the bank. He employed other defendants and moved money out through them.
According to the anti-graft commission, their offences are contrary to the provision of Section 17 of the EFCC Establishment Act, 2004, and Section 280 of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State 2015.
They all pleaded not guilty to the charge read to them.
Following their not-guilty plea, Tukur prayed the court for a trial date and urged the court to remand the defendants in the correctional facility.
However, the defendants counsel, Mr. M. S. Amosun and Mr. I. O. Lala informed the court that there was no pending application before the court but they prayed that they would do the needful before the next adjourned date.
