The Finnish Central Criminal Police has confirmed the release of popular pro-Biafra separatist agitator, Simon Ekpa.
Blueprint had earlier reported the arrest of Ekpa in Lahti by Finish policemen.
He was later released after the police allegedly arrested him for a suspected crime.
The police on Thursday claimed Ekpa’s arrest was in connection with the ongoing preliminary investigation.
“The person being questioned today is suspected of a crime. We will return to the title on Friday,” Tommi Reen from the Central Criminal Police told HS during a phone interview.
