Embattled former minister of Petroleum Resources, Deziani Alison-Madueke, was sighted at Westminster Magistrates Court, Central London on Monday, BBC correspondent, Sam Piranty, tweeted a while ago.

Piranty said Alison-Madueke was at the court at 10am, but could however not confirm if she has been charged.

“CONFIRMED Alison Diezani-Madueke was at Westminster magistrates court at 10 this morning,” he tweeted @sampiranty.

Piranty had earlier tweeted that the former Minister was at the Charring Cross Police Station from where she was apparently moved to the Westminster Court.

It will be recalled that Alison-Madueke was arrested in London last Friday alongside four others, whose identities are not known yet for offences bordering on money laundering.

She was seen in the court premises with her mother, Beatrice Agama.
