CCT Shifts Saraki’s Trial To March 11 by bencoinfo2: 1:52pm On Mar 01, 2016 |
The Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, on Tuesday
rescheduled the resumption of the trial of the
Senate President, Bukola Saraki, from March 10 to
11 March, 2016.
The Head, Press and Public Relations of the CCT,
Ibraheem Al-hassan, said in a statement said the
new date was fixed following a request by Saraki’s
new lead counsel, Chief Kanu Agabi, SAN.
Al-hassan said the new counsel to the Senate
President pleaded with the tribunal to reschedule
the trial because he has other urgent court matters
to attend to on March 10.
Agabi conveyed his request to the CCT in a letter
dated February 26, 2016.
The letter reads, ‘‘I write as lead counsel to the
above defendant (Saraki) to apply that the matter,
which is now scheduled to come up on the 10th
day of March 2016, subject to the convenience of
the honourable tribunal and learned counsel for the
prosecution, be taken on the 11th day of March,
2016, due to my earlier and urgent commitments in
other courts on the 10th.
‘‘I will sincerely appreciate the indulgence of the
tribunal to accommodate me in this way.”
The CCT had last month fixed March 10 for
resumption of proceedings shortly after the
Supreme Court dismissed Saraki’s appeal
challenging his trial at the tribunal. |
