The assets of Mr. Simon Ekpa, the self-proclaimed Biafra agitator, have been frozen by Finnish authorities.
Ekpa, who is currently in detention, was arrested alongside four of his alleged accomplices for terror-related activities.
According to the latest reports, the assets of companies associated with Ekpa and four of his accomplices have also been frozen.
The development was confirmed by a local newspaper, Yle, which also disclosed that Ekpa is being held in Kylmäkoski Vankila (Kylmäkoski Prison), one of the world’s toughest prisons.
Kylmäkoski Prison is a high-security facility in Vanhamaantie, Akaa, Finland.
Daily Sun reports that Ekpa will face charges for alleged terrorism-related activities in May 2025.
The date was disclosed by Mikko Laaksonen, a Senior Detective Superintendent at Finland’s National Bureau of Investigation.
“Due to the on-going investigations, no further details can be disclosed.
The date for bringing up possible charges by the prosecution was set by the district court to May 2025,” Laaksonen said.
