The United States has requested for pre-trial detention of suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Mr Abba Kyari, according to papers filed at the United State District Court for the Central District of California


The court papers sighted by THISDAY requested a pre-trial detention of Kyari.

The court papers filed April 29, 2021 were signed by Acting US Attorney, Tracy Wilkinson and two other officials.

It read: “Plantiff, United States of America, by and through its court of records hereby requests detention of defendant (Abba Kyari) and gives notice of the following factors:

“Pre-trial detention requested (S 3142(e)) because no condition or combination of conditions will reasonably assure:


“a. The appearance of the defendant as required

“b. Safety of any other person and the community”.

The US further said in the court papers that government was entitled to detention hearing under S 3142 (f) If the case involves serious risk the defendant will flee.

The US District Court of California had indicted Kyari over his involvement in a $1.1million fraud committed by notorious internet fraudster, Ramon Abbas Olarewaju, also known as Hushpuppi.


The development led to Kyari’s suspension by the Police Service Commission (PSC) on the recommendation of the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Usman Baba.

Kyari is currently facing an investigation panel set up by the IG and headed by DIG

Has USA asked for his extradition

Those Fooolani politicians will be the one to kill him last last coz that guy has a lot of secretes with him that shouldn't see the light.

In other words, US is asking FG to detain our super tailor in police custody as his trial continues, same way Kanu is being detained as trial continues. He can not be facing panel and then goes back home to be eating tuwo shinkafa.
O'boy, for US to ask for his detention, be like say overwhelming evidence don tie gele be that.
The snippet from people's gazzette is just like 'general market', by the time Kyari faces the FBI one one one, it'd be 'pick 2', 'pick 2' then 'check up'..

They should come and carry this man themselves, coz if they keep waiting for this Nigerian government, they'll never lay a finger on him.
