Nigerian
student, Olaolu Femi, who has been in detention in the Lungask district
of Ukrain for about a year after being arrested for attempted murder
has been released. He was released yesterday.
Ukrainian
police charged him with attempted murder, but according to eye
witnesses, Olaolu was defending himself against six Ukrainian teenagers
who attacked him at the entrance to his apartment block last year.
Olaolu was said to have managed to get up and defended himself against
the assailants with a glass from a broken bottle.
"It
was while he was defending himself that police arrived at the scene and
the Nigerian was subsequently arrested and charged with attempted
murder of five people" a Nigerian embassy staff who had knowledge of the
case said at the time.
