Pascal Dozie-owned Diamond Bank is currently in murky waters. It is accused of being an accessory to crime and is currently battling to extricate itself from a 5-count brought against it over a money laundering case related to drugs.Right now, two of the bank’s staff , Lasisi Abayomi and Hillary Ojukwu, are at the mercy of long arm of the law battling to save their necks from jail for contravening banking laws.
The bank, we gathered, was allegedly assisting a suspected drug baron, Chief Onoche Ikenua and his wife, Lizzy, to launder several huge sums of money believed to be proceeds of narcotics.
It was gathered that the bank refused to verify the identity of Onoche’s Oni Oil & Gas Ltd or decided to assist in the deal for financial gains.
