What is the problem of nigeria. Lawyers will defend anybody that pays them good money even thoug the person ment evil. The best thing for him to have done is to make a case for reduce jail term. I think this aturu goat should be tie to one of those large bomb and move him close to fire. |

Even though d lawyer is right, my first reaction was anger at his threat. I wish he were not right. I for insult him and him lineage. Kai! Maybe those rules concerning 24hrs detention etc, shouldn't hold for terrorism related offences 1 Like |

This is one of the reasons why a state of emergency was declared in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa (suspension of some fundamental rights). Aturu is right, by the way. As a dogged human rights campaigner, I'm sure he will fight it all the way. I just hope that the SSS can conclude investigations on time and charge the suspects to court. |

Government has powers to detain these criminals indefinitely because there has been no precedence and the nature of their acts lean more toward conspiracy and imminent danger against the Nigerian sovereingty than it does a domestic breach of law. First, are they citizens of Nigeria? If they are not then they cannot enjoy any rights that Aturu is advocating for them. If they are then they should be charged for treasons. In either case, their situation is of extreme nature and must not be rushed into prosecution. |

~ First, it is indubitable that under Nigerian law, suspects are presumed innocent until proven otherwise by a court of competent jurisdiction. How I wish this part is true but unfortunately it isn't, The hour u are caught in the act it's either u are given aluu4 punishment or arrested by the law enforcement agent & confined in cell for as long as it would have taken u to serve ur jail sentence if convicted of the crime. http://dailyindependentnig.com/2013/06/aturu-threatens-to-sue-dss-over-detention-of-fawaz-others/[/quote] |

Although the Attorney is right, this is a clear case of Terrorism and possession of weapon of mass destruction and will not be treated as regular felony. |

This is an issue of national security. This has nothing to do with regular criminal. It iss like America arresting Russian spy. They hide him in one cave and will be executed. |

Why are some Nigerians embarrasingly shameless? Imagine 3 Nigerians arrested in Lebanon wit same charges. Its d AALU 4 therapy dat wuld have been administered. In Lebanon, innocent Nigerians are being jailed & killed evryday & no one cares, but here, a Lebanese with terrorism links is STRONGLY being defended by a respectable lawyer. Its a shame. Meanwhile, security agents shld go to Beirut road in Kano, 90% of d shops there are owned & controlled by Lebanese. Who knows, they may find sometin new. Cheers |

In my opinion, this Aturu guy is just following due process (make e no be like say him no take action because dem go don pay am him legal fees). However, due to the nature of what they were arrested for (Terrorism); they will not be released. If you give those dangerous people one millisecond, too bad. They will evaporate and there will be negative consequences for a lot of people in Kano and Abuja (terrorists always leave you a memory or a mark to grieve about). |

24hrs deetention does not apply to terrorism suspects. The lawyer does not know what he is talking about. He is just making noise. They might soon join him to his lebanese brothers in ayoko city |

Let Aturu or goat go and get the money for Baba Suwe and allow us to deal with these Lebanese guys and give them jungle justice. |

Oko_AGB: Even though d lawyer is right, my first reaction was anger at his threat. I wish he were not right. I for insult him and him lineage. The funny thing abt the arrest of these Lebanese guys is the fact that d DSS and our Govt have not bin able to make any connection whatsoever btw these guys and Boko Barak. They stockpile arms,yes. But r they the first to be arrested for gun-running? Those anyone here recall d incidence of a 'close associate' of VP Namadi Sambo who was arrested last year for gun-running,and even had a stockpile of military uniform in his possession,...was dt man not released after a few days and no charges brought against him?

Re: Aturu Threatens To Sue Over Fawaz , Others Detention by Nobody: 10:50am On Jun 04, 2013 |
...my take on this issue is that these Lebanese simply took advantage of our porouse borders,and corrupt security agencies to ferry these arms cheaply into Nigeria for onward transmission to Hezbollah in Lebanon. Everyone knows that arms and ammunitions r relatively cheap in the west Africa sub-region. |
Re: Aturu Threatens To Sue Over Fawaz , Others Detention by Nobody: 11:00am On Jun 04, 2013 |
Have they passed the anti-terrorism bill? Because part of the bill will seek to hold terror suspects beyond 48hrs and even longer. What the SSS should do now is rush to court to get a Judge to grant them time to hold the suspects for an indefinite period |
