The trial of former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu and his wife, Beatrice Ekweremadu has been adjourned to July 7.
The London Metropolitan Police earlier on Thursday said it had arrested and charged the duo for conspiring to bring a child to the UK for organ harvesting.
At the Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court, they pleaded not guilty to the charges, according to a Daily Mail report.
Ms Sheard remanded both defendants into custody ahead of their hearing next month.
Meanwhile, the police said the child involved in the matter “has been safeguarded and we are working closely with partners on continued support.”
According to a letter applying for UK visa, Ekweremadu had written to the UK embassy, requesting for visa for the child.
The child was said to have applied for a visa for medical investigation as a kidney donor for Senator Ekweremadu’s daughter.
