According to the report, a Delta State High Court had given an order on suit No. HCO/44/2021 that Echeng and one Kingsley Umeh be remanded for refusing to comply with the order of the court to release a Kidnapped child to his parents.
Pastor Henry Osah, the plaintiff had urged the court to order the Anambra State Police Command to free his kidnapped child who was found in an orphanage home in Anambra.
Delivering Justice C.O Emifoniye ordered the IGP to arrest the Anambra CP and Inspector Kingsley Umeh and transport them to Kwale Correctional Centre in Delta State within one week.
