WhoBeThisMan:
he also has his rights too.

Bleep his right

I don't understand our judiciary system at all. Did Abboh plead not-guilty to the charge? Dude already confessed to the crime. Why not read him his statement at once? Why the adjournment till end of July? So that lobbying can take effect and the case forgotten?
And couldn't the police find a female magistrate to handle this case?

Chijeep:
I hope say no b d court go chop d money ooo?

make dem just carry all d moni giv d woman.

He doesn't have to pay the money.

He didn't confess to the crime, he only apologised. They are two different things before the law.

Granting someone like him bail its just like giving him more go ahead to do much more bad things cos he would be like after all its money I'm gonna pay this is really heartbreaking for me he should be living among goats

A person granted bail in court is not required to pay the bail sum. The bail sum only becomes payable by the surety if the accused run away and refuse to face trial.

oops! am sorry.never knew you were such an arrogant prick.forgive me for quoting you

While I commend the prosecution of the said senator, in addition, the woman should get herself a lawyer and sue the nitwit. At least, 1m damages for that assault.[/quote

Assault is a criminal offense, you have to complete the criminal trial and get conviction first before contemplating damages, which would be a different civil suit entirely.

Sanchez01:
Our judiciary is a huge problem! Why would a case as this with glaring evidence be delayed?

No matter how well we start protesting in this country, justice won't be served as long as our present judiciary passes judgment on the matter. The law is designed for the poor.

This is obviously the last of the case.

The magistrate court is an holding one, the police would send the case file to the DPP legal advice, The case would be continued or dropped, depending on the advice. Thats how the nigerian judicial system was designed.

Should he be killed?

LegalOpinion:

Apologized for a crime he didn't commit? That's a new one.

Meanwhile, from his apology video, it is evident he conceded to doing the crime.

Uhmm can you read... he is still going to court ... he was just granted bail so as not to stay in jail since his case has not been heard...

Meanwhile, they should force him to take a mandatory HIV test and then commit him to Yaba left, he needs a psychiatrist

By law he cannot be forced to do the test

SocialJustice:
That money dey enter TSA straight. This is the reason I don't like justice in Nigeria. The senator probably spent at least N100k to bail himself from police then N5m from court and the abused woman never see 50 kobo.

in dat case it totally rubbish

superior1:

They should.
But my worry is with NPF -the prosecution and their hasty approach to charge cases without getting their arguments right in line.
Several witnesses and cases have appeared of this man having been in this same very act on several occations...married once before with HIV liabilities...domestic violence...photographer beating...
They should assemble all these and more ss such will prove their cases beyond reasonable doubts according to Nigerian law.

igwedubai2:
The five millions will been writing on d bail application for the court. The money is not for the court. The problem is that to get two surety that can stood for the accused person (senator) and also for the prosecutor to verify d two surety address. So, d five millions is not given to d court., That is the bail condition n d gravity of the offence quote author=Chijeep post=80069135]I hope say no b d court go chop d money ooo?

make dem just carry all d moni giv d woman.

d moni evn small compared to wat d idiotic senator put dx woman through

sowi 2 ask ooo...

so d money is just like a guarantor in a loan scheme?

WinningSun:


By law he cannot be forced to do the test

Yes they can't
but same law can give order for same test
they need to prove ...how it has...or how it is causing harm
or it's usefulness in accordance with the law
and or for the public

post=80069168:
What a slap on the wrist.

In saner climes, the citizens and the celebrities will be on top of this situation till this woman beater is removed as senator.

There was a country!

All d idiots with voice r focused on d downfall of one pastor

Good for him, he won't try that next time.

[quote author=LegalOpinion post=80073158][/quote]

Assault can ground actions in both criminal law and civil law. And pls the victim need not wait till there's a prosecution. You can bring both actions at the same time or even the civil case before the prosecution in criminal law.

The rule in Smith v Selwyn has been abolished in Nigeria.

superior1:

Why shouldn't the government also force you to take an HIV test?
If he was a husband slapping his wife, I am sure you would find an excuse for him.

You mean a man slapping a shop attendant is more important than a serial rapist
victimizing his church members both single and married.
SMH

Court always adjour cases from time to time. This is as a result of numerous cases awaiting hearing

Thank you

Dear nairalanders I'd advice you not to pay 1kobo for the so called professional logo.
