Nigerian Kunle Benjamin Slammed With 3-Years Behind-Bars Over Stolen World Cup Tickets, In Pretoria Metropolis, SA
New York [RR] South-Africa—A Nigerian has been jailed in World-Cup host-nation South-Africa for alleged fraudulent ticket racketeering in Pretoria Metropolis, South Africa.
Impeccable sources told RR that authorities in South-Africa and its intelligence community tracked a man [Kunle Benjamin], who was spotted driving erratically in the capital, Pretoria-Metropolis—acting suspiciously he was stopped and searched. The SA-Police officials were shocked when they discovered that he was in procession of 30 stolen World Cup tickets.
Sources told RR that special court slammed Kunle Benjamin with three years in jail for stealing or possessing illegally 30-stolen World Cup tickets, “A special World Cup court has sentenced a Nigerian man to three years in prison for being in possession of 30 stolen tickets in South Africa”.
“Kunle Benjamin was stopped in his car in the capital, Pretoria, when police noticed him driving “erratically”.
Reports say the alleged fraudulent fellow acting suspiciously attracted police attention making the intelligence agency to aggressively widen its search of the automobile, “As the suspect was acting suspiciously police decided to search him and the 30 tickets were discovered”. SA authorities confirmed to reporters. Sources say police spokeswoman Sally de Beer thanked his brilliant team for exposing this fraudulent act.
Attempt to reach authorities in Abuja for explanation regarding this incident failed as nobody was talking. RR attempted to contact Nigeria Ambassador in South-Africa to confirm or deny this report failed—SA court verdict against Kunle Benjamin slammed the Nigerian with 3-years behind bars, reports say Pretoria penitentiary-correction facility, in Southern Africa country is not of international standard but was upgraded somewhat because of the World Cup Tournament.
Nobody knows where Kunle Benjamin was provided with a legal representation as prescribed by international Human Charter and other international instruments as enshrined in its documentations. RR will continue to monitor this development for further details. Commentators want authorities in Abuja to direct its representative in South-African Mission to challenge the allegation against Kunle Benjamin. Some say it must seek immediate bail arrangement for the accused as the trial seemed hurried executed by SA- authorities.
According to reports International World Cup Authorities asked South African authorities Planning Committee and host country to provide impeccable effective security measures to deal with world cup related offenses, including providing and maintaining adequate security for participating countries. “More than 50 courts have been set up to deal with World Cup related crimes”.
Eyewitnesses say Mr. Benjamin looked conflicted, dumbfounded & twisted, it was reported that Mr. Benjamin was unable to explain to the Pretoria Metropolis Court how he came in possession of 30 World Cup tickets for himself alone.
“Mr Benjamin was unable to tell the court how he came to be in possession of the tickets, police say”.
FIFA revealed today that the World Cup organization and its committee agencies have quietly launched into massive investigation when it discovered that tickets had been bought by two individuals on the internet, but said the individuals lacked tracking residential identifications for authenticity thus suspicious and ordered its security on full alert.
“FIFA say they discovered the tickets had been bought by two men on the internet, but their addresses could not be verified”. “This is yet again an example of the effectiveness of having dedicated teams… to deal with World Cup-related offences,” said Ms de Beer.
FIFA has urged fans only to buy tickets from authorized outlets”.
This is another twisted rebranding at internationalism in addition to disgraceful low performing Nigeria National Team, whose super-Eagles have crashed two matches in a role at the World Cup tournament in South-Africa. First lose was against Argentina, 1-0, and early yesterday it loses to lowly Ancient Greece National Team, 2-1.
World Cup pundits and analysts say Nigeria national team must now beat South-Korea with at least three goals to nothing to qualify, adding that it would do with a winning help from Argentine National Team in its face-off with Greece, or they are heading to early summer vacation. _____________________________________________________________________________
