Suspended DCP Abba Kyari, Co-defendant Beg Court to Release Them

Suspended DCP Abba Kyari and his co-defendant, ACP Sunday Ubia have begged the Federal High Court, Abuja to grant them bail.

The duo approached the court today, Monday 14th, 2022, according to a report by NAN.

Kyari and Ubia, through their lawyer, Mahmud Magaji, told Justice Emeka Nwite while arguing the bail application that his clients’ offences are bailable, adding that the constitution gave the court the discretionary power to do so.

However, counsel to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Joseph Sunday, a Director of Prosecution and Legal Services, opposed the bail application.

Also, counsel to other police officers in the matter, also urged the court to grant their clients bail.

The matter is still ongoing as at the time of filing the report.
