FG, EFCC Didn’t Disobey Court Order, Judge Tells Dasuki by DONSMITH123(m): 12:09pm On Mar 04, 2016 |
Another judge of a Federal Capital Territory High Court in Maitama, Abuja, Justice Peter Affen, on Friday ruled that the continued detention of the immediate past National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.), did not violate his order granting the ex-NSA bail on December 21, 2015. The judge dismissed the application by Dasuki seeking to stop his trial for alleged diversion of N19bn arms funds on the grounds that his re-arrest on December 29, 2015 violated the order of the court granting him bail. Justice Affen ruled that the application lacked merit and ordered that the trial of the ex-NSA, who was charged along with others, must continue. The judge fixed April 20 and 22, April for trial. Earlier, Justice Baba Yusuf of the same court had also on February 8 made similar declaration that the detention of the former NSA was in not in breach of his order granting bail to him on December 18, 2015. The judge had fixed March 23 for commencement of trial. Dasuki had also filed separate applications before the two judges asking for orders prohibiting the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission from further prosecuting him on the two separate sets of charges pending before the judges. Among his other prayers anchored on alleged violation of the orders of the court by the EFCC, Dasuki prayed the court for an order discharging him of the alleged crime or alternatively staying proceedings. Meanwhile Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court in Abuja had on Thursday fixed April 4 for ruling on similar application filed by Dasuki to stop his trial on four counts of money laundering and illegal possession of firearms. Dasuki was re-arrested by operatives of the Department of State Service on December 29, 2015 shortly after he was released from Kuje prison upon fulfilling the bail conditions imposed on him by the two judges of the FCT High Court in Maitama. Justice Affen ruled on Friday, that since it was clear that the ex-NSA was not re-arrested by the EFCC but by the Department of State Service, the EFCC could not be said to have violated the said order granting him bail. The judge ruled that though the EFCC and the DSS were both federal agencies, the wrongdoing of one could not be blamed on th order. He also ruled that the order granting bail to the defendant did not preclude him from being re-arrested by other agencies of the Federal Government in respect of other alleged crime. In his ruling delivered on December 21, 2015, Justice Affen had directed that if Dasuki or any his co-accused was needed by the prosecution for further investigation, they could only be held between 9am and 6pm and be allowed to return home on each day. The judge ruled that if the prosecution needed the accused beyond the stipulated period, it must first obtain the leave of court. “The order of court made on December 21, 2015 did not in any way contemplated any government agencies other than the EFCC to whom the order was directed,” Justice Affen ruled. While ruling that the EFCC had not violated its order, the judge added even if it did, Dasuki’s lawyer did not show how that could constituted grounds for discharging him or stay the criminal proceedings. He also ruled that the ex-NSA should have pursued the enforcement of his fundamental rights to liberty in an independent civil suit. Dasuki and others are being prosecuted on 22 counts of diversion of N19bn arms fund. His co-accuse include a former Director of Finance and Administration in the Office of the NSA, Shuaibu Salisu, and a former Minister of State for Finance, Bashir Yuguda. Others charged along with them, are a former Governor of Sokoto State, Attahiru Bafarawa, the ex-governor’s son, Sagir Attahiru, and a firm, Dalhatu Investment. The EFCC is also prosecuting the ex-NSA and others on separate set of 19 counts of alleged diversion of N32bn arms fund before Justice Baba Yusuf. His co-accused in the case are Salisu, a former General Manager, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Aminu Babakusa and two companies – Acacia Holdings Limited and Reliance Referral Hospital Limited. http://www.punchng.com/fg-efcc-didnt-disobey-court-order-judge-tells-dasuki/ 13 Likes 1 Share |

![]() ![]() ![]() When i said Dasuki's lawyer and other rogue SANs are specialists in delayed tactics and are always in the habit of frustrating court cases against their corrupt clients, one strayed boy came here spewing rubbish. This same 'SAN' just as in the case of Saraki also, keeps running from one court to another seeking God forsaken injunctions to frustrate the case of his clients going into trial. What is it that they are afraid of? If Dasuki, Ricky Tarfa, Metuh and Saraki and every other person facing corrupt cases are sure of their innocence they should instead ask the prosecution to present their evidence while they also present their own counter evidence. But they know they are guilty and their rogue lawyers know this too. In PMB's Voice; Don't be afraid of me, but be afraid of the consequences of your actions. 176 Likes 12 Shares |

DONSMITH123: Take a look at Buhari and you might be able to make that deduction yourself. Recall his infamous assertion during the media chat... Sentiment is different from law. There are bail-able offences and non bail-able offences. Unfortunately for Buhari what they accused Dasuki of is bail-able. If he is not confortable with the law he should send a bill to the NA to change it. Disobeying the constitution he has sworn to defend is not the solution. 2 Likes 1 Share |

DONSMITH123: You are being naively sentimental.....He has been granted bail only to be re-arrested Before you pronounce anyone guilty you have to follow due process and courts! EFCC and Buhari have made a lot of Nigerians believe he has done a horrible thing, and at such he should rot in jail! But as the law states, he must be tried for his misdeeds in all fairness! If government have sufficient evidence to prosecute dasuki, no need for all this harassment! 4 Likes |
