Popular Nollywood actor, Kalu Ikeagwu, who recently got married, was arrested at his home in Ogba area of Lagos on Monday by security operatives.

He was picked up in connection with a robbery and homicide case which took place in Abuja.

According to Ecomium, Kalu was taken to the police station for questioning as a result of a stolen phone he bought which was connected to a robbery incident where one of the victims was killed.

Kalu had been approached in his home by the security agents and had been invited for questioning but when he began to argue with them, the men brought out their guns before taking him away.
His wife and stepdaughter were reportedly left in tears.

Fortunately, Kalu was later released and returned home around 8:30pm and he reportedly explained to his worried neighbours that his personal assistant ‘mistakenly’ bought a stolen phone at Computer Village in Ikeja and the thieves reportedly killed one of the victims of the robbery.

The phone was traced to Lagos by the security agents who tracked him down since his address and name were used during the purchase.
