El-zakzaky: Falana Withdraws Petition Against Nigerian Army by nwakibie3(m): 4:38pm On Nov 08, 2017
The counsel to detained leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, IMN, on Wednesday withdrew the petition against the Nigerian Army at the Presidential Investigation Panel on Human Right Violations.

Mr. Falana said although it was painful, he had to withdraw the petition in view of the fact that there was already a judicial commission of inquiry, currently handling the case.

He, however, said that the panel could on its own, decide to listen to any witness in the case, and urged the panel to keep the petition in view

Mr. Falana also urged the panel to issue an order directing the federal government to comply with the ruling of the Federal High Court that ordered for the release of Ibrahim El-Zakzaky from detention.

He berated the Federal Government for not obeying the ruling of the Federal High Court on Mr. El-Zakzaky, adding that since Nigeria’s independence, he had never seen a couple detain together.

He said that the couple should be released based on the premise that the country was operating the rule of law, adding that it was painful he could not put the petition through.

“We are already taking other steps to ensure that El-Zakzaky is released, because this is the first time in the history of this country that a couple will be detained,” he said.

Akinseye George, the counsel to the Nigerian Army, said that the matter should be expunged from the panel list.

He said that the panel was magnanimous enough to accommodate the petition by shifting dates and time for the petitioner.

He said that the panel should disregard the petitioner’s plea that the petition be kept in view, stressing that the petition ended with the withdrawal.

Justice Biobele George, chairman of the panel, struck out the petition based on voluntary withdrawal by the petitioner

The Presidential Investigation Panel to Review Compliance of the Armed Forces with Human Rights Obligations and Rules of Engagement sittings ended on November 8.

The panel had travelled round the six geo-political zones to receive petitions and listen to petitioners’ allegations of human rights violation by the military.

The impunity and the brazen disregard of the law and institutions by this government is at its peak.How do someone who disregards the law build institutions?

Leader of the shitte movement who was used extensively by these wicked politicians, el Rufai and by extension Buhari for their elections have gone and turn their backs on them.

From killing them in thousands, to destroying their spiritual temple, to killing them regularly up north even when they go for peaceful processions and the wanton disregard for court order to release this man unconditionally. For a reason, what is happening should be a lesson to sentimental fellows, who vote based on ethnicity and religion instead of antecedents

This should be a lesson to BMC crew on nairaland, who have no conscience but would defend this wicked government for crumbs( I wouldn't call their names before the cowards would invite the mods who would quote rule 2 with no justification). A time would come when they would pounce back on You. Its a sure thing, it's karma, that's the way life is structured. Just as Buhari and el rufai pounced on the shites after using their numbers for the elections, just as boko Haram is pouncing on northerners for keeping silent and some actively supporting when the onslaught was against Christians and the Ibo, that's how you are going to be prey for them one day

Politically motivated withdrawal. As usual, Falana has sold out again. I miss Gani so much at times like this.
