money under false pretence to the tune of USD145, 000.
Uche, who claimed to be a
military officer working for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, NATO in
Kabul, Afghanistan allegedly, collected the money from his victim, H. Uyen, a
Viatnamese woman, after promising to marry her.
The suspect, who also

the victim that he needed the money to procure some documents for the planned
wedding.
The money was allegedly wired
