The police arraigned Dino Melaye, lawmaker representing Kogi west senatorial district, before a magistrate court in Abuja, on Wednesday.
He was brought on a stretcher but journalists were prevented from going into the court premises.
A source alleged that Melaye was granted a N90 million bail. However, armed policemen took over the court, preventing vehicular human movements.
He was unresponsive as he got wheeled into the courtroom by his lawyers and security operatives.
Reports said Dino was whisked away by a waiting ambulance and was accompanied by over 100 armed policemen.
