BBC star Oghenochuko Ojiri pleads guilty to financing suspected Hezbollah financier

Oghenochuko Ojiri, who regularly appeared as an art expert on the popular BBC series “Bargain Hunt,” pleaded guilty to helping finance the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.

Ojiri made the stunning admission on Friday during a hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court in London, according to BBC News. He pleaded guilty to eight counts of failing to disclose potential terrorist financing.

Hezbollah, which is backed by Iran, is designated as a terrorist group by both the US and the UK.

The embattled “Bargain Hunt” star reportedly admitted that he had helped fund the group by selling artwork to Nazem Ahmad, a suspected terrorist financier sanctioned by the US and UK due to his alleged links to Hezbollah.
