The precise time and courtroom for the hearing have not been disclosed, as they are typically revealed the day before the hearing. Poco Lee's friends and supporters have rallied around him following his arrest in the UK. According to Benjamin Kuti, founder of the Nigerian community in the UK, Poco Lee is currently in a UK prison and is set to appear in court on September 15, 2026.
