The founder of DAAR Communications Limited, owners of AIT TV
and Raypower radio, Chief Raymond Dokpesi has been arrested by the Police in
the United Kingdom.
Dokpesi was reportedly arrested at Heathrow Airport in
London on Sunday morning, January 8, 2023.
According to Whistler, Dokpesi was arrested on arrival at
Heathrow Airport. He had boarded a Lufthansa Flight LH916 from Frankfurt to
London and was subsequently picked up at Terminal 2 of Heathrow Airport.
“We were on a flight from Frankfurt to London and as we are
about to arrive London, we were informed that we should all stay on our seat
when the aircraft lands and that the Police wanted to do something.
We were informed that there will be a police operation. So
when we landed, the police came in and ask who is Raymond Dokpesi and they now
took him away,” a source who witnessed the arrest said.
Although, it’s unclear why he was arrested, Per Second News
reports that he was booked into a HMP correctional center in the London Borough
on Sunday afternoon.
He will make an initial court appearance on Monday morning,
January 9, the report added.
It was gathered that when he appears in court, the first
hearing would involve a judge deciding whether Dokpesi has adequate legal
representation and scheduling additional court dates, including an arraignment.
An initial appearance could pave the way for authorities to
release the probable cause affidavit, the document authorities used to justify
Dokpesi’s arrest and obtain a warrant, which has so far been sealed.
