The Nigerian Voice reported that US Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Nigerian national Rapheal Oludemilade Adebowale in Bridgewater, Massachusetts.

According to the report, DHS said Adebowale had previously been convicted of larceny and money laundering. The report does not include the earlier court records or specify those convictions' dates or sentences.
The outlet said the agency did not disclose details of his immigration status, the circumstances of this arrest or any new criminal charges. This is a report of a US immigration-enforcement arrest involving a Nigerian national, not a newly established money-laundering case in Nigeria.
