The senator who was conveyed by a police ambulance, is to be arraigned before a Magistrate court in the state on allegations of criminal conspiracy, causing damage to government property, attempted suicide and escape from lawful custody, according to the police.
The Kogi senator, who last week overcame an attempted recall, has been engulfed in several scuffles with the Nigerian police, which saw him jump out of a moving police vehicle on April 24 while being conveyed to Kogi State resulting to his admission into the National Hospital.
Melaye, on arriving the state was first taken to the office of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) in the north-central state, where he was guarded by armed policemen.
