Alleged Drug Trafficking: NDLEA Has No Power To Prosecute Me, Kyari Tells Court
The detained Deputy Commissioner of Police, DCP, Abba Kyari has challenged the powers of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to prosecute him.
He is currently standing trial for some drug trafficking allegations at the Federal High Court, Abuja.
Kyari, who hitherto headed the Police Intelligence Response Team, IRT, is on trial for allegedly tampering with cocaine that was seized from two convicted drug peddlers- Chibunna Patrick Umeibe and Emeka Alphonsus Ezenwanne.
He is answering to an eight-count charge the NDLEA preferred against him and four members of his team; ACP Sunday J. Ubia, ASP Bawa James, Insp. Simon Agirigba and Insp. John Nuhu.
