Report reaching us is that the police will this week file criminal charges against Senator Elisha Abbo for allegedly assaulting a nursing woman at an adult toy shop in Abuja.
The Senate had set up a bi-partisan adhoc committee headed by a former governor of Ebonyi State, Sam Egwu, to probe the action of the Peoples Democratic Party Senator.
It was learnt that police detectives had been able to establish a prima facie case against the lawmaker. Apart from the evidence deduced from the video , which showed Abbo repeatedly slapping his victim for intervening in an argument between him and the shop owner , the admission by the Senator in a statement last week was also said to have added to the weight of evidence against him.
