Judge Says EFCC Hasn't Erred In Detaining Dasuki After Meeting Bail Conditions by henryuzor(m): 2:19pm On Feb 09, 2016
Justice Husseini Baba of the Federal Capital Territory High Court in Maitama, Abuja, yesterday February 8th, said the Federal government and operatives of the EFCC have not in anyway violated court order following his continued detention even after meeting his bail condition.

At the hearing of an application by Dasuki asking the court to stop DSS from detaining him, the presiding judge, Justice Baba, said his continued detention by DSS is not in anyway a contempt of court proceeding as he was arrested on fresh charges by the DSS the day he fulfilled his bail condition in December 2015


“At the end, it is my view that the application filed on behalf of the first defendant does not have any merit and I hold so. I therefore dismiss same. From paragraphs 6 and 7 of affidavit in support of this application, it is clear that after the first defendant/applicant satisfied the terms in Exhibit ‘Dasuki 2’ he was released from Federal prisons on December 29, 2015 at this point the order of the court, as far as I am concerned, which was directed at the Comptroller of Prisons, was in my view complied with. If the EFCC re-arrested the first defendant thereafter, it makes, subject to the circumstances of such arrest, an interference with due administration of justice but it cannot be a disobedience to the order of the court to release the applicant on bail. The reason is because in making the order of bail in favour of the first defendant, this court did not make any order against a re-arrest.”he said
The judge ruled that since it had been confirmed that Dasuki was being held by the Department of State Services, DSS, which “is a stranger” in the case, the EFCC which is prosecuting Dasuki and his co-accused could not be said to have violated the bail order. Dasuki is being tried for misappropriation of $2.1 billion arms deal.

Criminals have perfected ways of beating our laws since 1180BC. Meanwhile, PMB has perfected ways of clipping their wings since time immemorial.

Some judges are seeing reason with the fight against corruption and are cooperating.

This topic should make front page because not too long ago when Dasuki was re-arrested by the DSS on fresh charges after he was granted bail by the courts on charges brought against him by the EFCC,many wailers came out criticizing PMB led fed govt for disobeying court orders without trying to first understand the details of the case
Similar thing also happened in the case against Nnamdi Kanu
Now the courts have denied Nnamdi Kanu bail and also absolved the PMB led Fed govt of any wrong doing in both cases and the wailing wailers are silent
Also Tompolo has gone into hiding and has refused to obey COURT ORDER to appear and defend himself against charges that have been filed against him....Wailing Wailers why have you all been silent?..why have you all not raised your voices to shout that Tompolo should obey court orders
