When the case was revisited on Monday, the accused failed to appear. The police prosecutor informed the court that Yarboi seemed to be willfully disregarding court orders.

Following the prosecutor’s request, the court issued a bench warrant for Yarboi’s arrest.

Sources close to the prosecution confirmed that Yarboi has been apprehended since the warrant’s issuance. The case is now set for July 8, 2024.
