You can talk to the hand. Otapipia: Shocked to know you're a lawyer. I have no arguments to make in this case and I will not render an unsolicited consultancy to Yunusa. He has been granted bail and rightly so.
As a member of the Bar which you claim to be, it's wrong to cast aspersions on the integrity of a judge for any reason. Just take a hint. |

You can keep talking out of point and copy and paste as much as you like. The fact remains that Yunusa should not have been granted bail in this case. You are entitled to your opinion but you can't impose it on me. Am talking from the angle of a Chief State Counsel who has been prosecuting criminals and accused persons for long. If you are laughing about the few omissions which I later modified, then you must be really childish. I have a legal opinion am working on, and I come here intermittently to ease off so I may not have time to edit my comments before posting. There are always two sides to a case: the side of the defence and the side of the prosecution. You are here to defend your party but I am on the side of justice. Yunusa's act is repugnant to natural justice, equity and good conscience and must be condemned by all men and women of goodwill. You may keep impressing your pay masters for more rice and brown envelope. I have better things to do. BYE. MadCow1: You shot yourself in the foot with this post.. I couldn't stop laughing when I read it. Easy on your use of 'Feigning Ignorance', especially when you are about to speak on a subject you are not fully equipped to discuss.
First of all, you say the judge should not be sentimental yet everything you have written in your post reeks of nothing but sheer sentiments. Thank God you are not the Judge or on the jury (assuming this was a trial by Jury matter).
Listen Madam, go and find out why the legal symbol for justice worldwide has a blindfolded lady...

That means Justice does not pay attention to anything else other than the facts. Its not interested in if Christian little girls are watching, if the Muslims are watching or whatever else you feel or are feeling.
Yinusa's case is not as straight forward as you think. The Prosecution still has the burden of proof to establish here. If you think its going to be easy, then you have no idea about Law and/or legal process.
Yinusa is charged with the following offences;
abduction, coercion, seduction into illicit intercourse, sexual exploitation and unlawful carnal knowledge of a Minor.
Yinusa under the law is entitled to have legal representation and is entitled to a free and fair hearing devoid of and bias or sentiments.
Under the law, there are actually a hand full of cases where the Judge is statutorily obligated to deny bail mostly in cases involving murder, attempted murder and rape. But even then, a Judge can grant bail at his discretion in almost all cases especially if the defendant does not pose a flight risk and is a first time offender.
So why should Yinusa be denied bail just because it goes against the feelings of a few?
If his Lawyers decide to exploit the legal loopholes and gets the case thrown out on a technicality (Which can happen), why shouldn't he?
If you must hold anybody to ransom, hold the prosecution.. Not the judge and not the defense attorney. If the prosecution fails to prove their case beyond reasonable doubt, Yinusa Yellow would walk away Scott free and under the rule of Double jeopardy, you cant try a person twice for the same offense.

Let me tell you what you don't know or maybe you are purposely feigning ignorance of: Though Yunusa is not the first Northern Muslim to abduct/rape a Southern Christian girl and converted her to a Muslim, his case is the 1st popularised of such cases and still the most popularised up till now. Potential Christian female minor abductors are watching to see how this case goes. If the case is treated with kid gloves like you are advocating for, they may dare the little consequences and abduct girls in the future, knowing fully well that the courts will grant them bail and that their lawyers can delay the trial, meaning they can be free to roam about and abduct/rape more girls so long as the case lingers. This matter must be handled well and the judge should not be sentimental towards the accused so as to serve as a deterrent to potential abductors. MadCow1: What circumstances?
The Emir is not involved. He gave his ruling that the girl be released to her parents from the very first day that matter was brought to his attention so why are you insistent on dragging the Emir's name in the mud?
Every criminal granted bail has the ability to be a flight risk so why should Yinusa be treated any differently? 
I hate the double standards you are advocating be used for this case.
Two men of the 6 involved in raping those teenagers in Ebonyi, one of whom later died in the hospital were granted bail, why should Yinusa be treated worse than them? |

In other words you are saying it is right to circumvent justice in order to please the Muslim community? Where was the Muslim community when Yunusa and many others abducted many under aged girls and turned them into their sex slaves? SMH. Mike008: I think it is a sound ruling. Like you said, if the Muslim community are interested in the case then it will raise further eyebrows if the accused person is denied bail, considering the opposing lawyer also remarked so. If bail is denied, many from the Muslim community will never consider it a matter of law, but a matter religious sentiments. The less this matter bears a religious aura the better the outcome. And because it is purely a matter of law, nothing prevents the courts in its entirety in granting bail as in the circumstance. What is paramount is that the accused will attend his trial and am sure the terms of bail will see to that. I see nothing wrong with the ruling. |

I doubt if you are a practising lawyer because if you are, you will know that it is quite risky to grant the accused bail. The accused will most likely abscond, especially when he knows that both the Government, the masses and even the international bodies are very much interested in his case. Anyway, granting of bail is at the court's discretion, however, the judge has to use such a discretion judiciously and judicially. Any good prosecutor who knows his onions should be able to convince the judge not to grant the accused bail as that is most likely going to be disastrous. If you have more argument to make in this case, you can channel your attention towards contacting Yunusa so that you can defend him pro bono (free of charge). Am not here to compete on who a better lawyer is. I rest my case. Otapipia: I quite understand your sentiments and arguments. Remember we are talking about bail and not substantive matters.
In this particular case, bail couldn't have been denied by the learned trial judge. As serious as the offence might be, it is very bailable.
Don't cast aspersion on the integrity of a judge just because you habour a divergent opinion.
Cheers bro. |
Crime › Re: Ese Oruru’s Parents Stage Walkout As Court Grants Yunusa Bail-the Leadership by amtaken(f): 1:34pm On Mar 22, 2016 |
In deciding whether or not to grant bail, the court will consider a number of factors, including: 1. The nature and seriousness of the crime.2.The character of the defendant, his past criminal record, associations and ties with the community 3.The defendants recorded in regard to his previous commitments to bail conditions 4. The strength of the evidence against the defendant
. I refer to Bail Act 1976. Factor 1 talks about the nature and seriousness of the offence. In the instant case, the offence for which the accused is charged for is such a heinous offence, the type that is rapidly gaining ground in our society and if not curbed will lead to a lot of disaster in our nation as a whole. We are talking about abduction, rape, illicit sexual intercourse with a minor. It is a very serious offence not only against the victims but also against her family especially her parents and the society at large. Imagine a situation whereby minors who should be in school and under parental care are exposed to sexual slavery. Every reasonable man on the street ought to know that perpetrators of such offences are are dangerous to their victims and the society at large. Factor 4 talks about the strength of the evidence against the defendant: The defendant has confess to the offences he was charged for and the circumstantial evidence and the eye witnesses evidence tendered in court show that indeed the accused committed the offences. The minor whom he raped is even pregnant and he admitted that he's responsible for the pregnancy. From the factors 1 and 4 above, it is my considered legal opinion that the accused should be remanded in prison custody during his trial. Thank you. Otapipia: I quite disagree with you. The first question which is wether the offence is bailable is no doubt a very emphatic yes. To say the judge was compromised is not fair. You are not privy to the contents of the affidavits accompanying both the bail application and the response file by the prosecution.
The court will only act on facts and material presented by parties. If you're a lawyer, you should know that an accused remains innocent until proven guilty. Denying an accused bail while standing trial for a bailable offence is not justice, it's punitive. |

Truly the crime in the instant case is a bailable offence, however, the circumstances of the case warrants that the accused be remanded in custody while the trial lasts. The case is very sensitive in nature and many Muslim big wigs eg the Emir of Kano are indirectly involved. They may attempt to shield the accused from attending the court for his trial. The accused can even travel out of the country with a new passport and new identity. He can even choose to trek through the border and Sahara Desert as most of them do.
The judge acted as if he's been compromised.
