Senator Ike Ekweremadu and his wife recently appeared before the Uxbridge Magistrate Court in the United Kingdom over organ harvesting charges.
It should be recalled that Ekweremadu and his wife, Beatrice, were recently nabbed by the Specialist Crime Team of the Metropolitan Police in London over an alleged conspiracy to harvest the organ of a boy.

The couple had been in custody since their apprehension and were later charged to a London court, a situation that had brewed mixed reactions from Nigerians.
The case against Ekweremadu has now been adjourned to July 7 at Westminster Magistrate Court to enable the UK Attorney General, Suella Braverman, to determine whether the case will be tried in the UK or Nigeria.
According to information, Ekweremadu was refused bail because he is a powerful man and as such, he is considered a flight risk and that the case involved a child and modern slavery.

Meanwhile, President of Senate Ahmad Lawan has assured that the Senate would keep engaging with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Nigeria High Commissioner in London on the issue to ensure that the senator has all the necessary support.
