Hushpuppi was transferred to another prison not released – Gal Pissetzky

Gal Pissetzky, the legal representative for alleged Nigerian fraudster Hushpuppi, has reacted to reports that Hushpuppi has been released from prison.

According to Pissetzky, Hushpuppi was transferred to another prison instead. The lawyer also confirmed he was still representing Hushpuppi.

Hushpuppi’s lawyer’s response comes after reports circulated on Wednesday night that Hushpuppi had been released as his details on the Bureau of Prisons showed he was no longer in the prison

“He is on his way to California, United States of America, for trial. …”
Pissetzky told PUNCH on Wednesday night. “He has not been released and I am still his lawyer. He is on his way to California.
“Not everything you see on court documents is accurate.”
“Just because the jail record says ‘released’ does not mean he has been released. He is being transferred to California,”
