JUST IN: Instagram big boy, Hushpuppi bags 11-year jail term

Instagram big boy, Ramon ‘HUSHPUPPI’ Abbas has been sentenced to prison for 11 years in the United States of America.

In a final appeal to Judge Otis Wright ahead of his scheduled sentencing on September 19, Hushpuppi wrote a personal letter to the court narrating his source of wealth, criminal adventure and regrets.

He apologised to his family members for bringing them shame while commending the Federal Bureau of Investigation for doing a thorough job in bringing him to justice.

On September 19, Judge Otis Wright delayed Hushpuppi’s sentencing to November 3.

The Judge had initially rejected the plea of the defendant’s motion for a delay of judgement.

He was finally sentenced to 11 years in jail by the United States Central District Court in California.

But Hushpuppi Abbas will spend nine years in prison because he had spent two years already in the US following his arrest in Dubai in 2020.

The US government last month urged the District Court in Central California to sentence Hushpuppi, to 135 months in jail for fraud.

It gave its reasons for proposing the equivalent of 11 years and three months jail time for Mr Abbas in its court filings.

The prosecutors stated he was claimed to be one of the best cleaners in the prison where he has been remanded since his arrest in 2021.
