Elisha Abbo, the senator who assaulted a nursing mother at an adult toy shop in Abuja, has arrived at the Federal Capital Territory Police Command for interrogation.
Abbo, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lawmaker representing Adamawa North Senatorial District, is now being grilled by detectives.
Confirming the development to The Punch, the FCT Police Commissioner, Bala Ciroma, said Abbo was presently interacting with operatives at the command.

“He is still with us,” Ciroma explained.
Abbo had earlier met with the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, at the Force headquarters before heading to the command for questioning.
Following the outrage over a trending video of the young lawmaker assaulting his victim, the IG had directed the CP to carry out an investigation into the incident.
Ciroma had also been handling the forensic investigation of the footage which showed Abbo repeatedly slapping his victim over what appeared to be a minor disagreement while a police officer looked on.
