he is okay. That's lawyer job. Even if u kill Buhari and was caught red-handed, pay a lawyer, he will still boldly defend u and tell u all is well.

Between Evans and the Nigerian police, who is the bigger criminal?

If this is a sane society he certainly have case on this but I'm sorry to inform him that this is Nigeria.

They failed to do the needful. They should have wasted him the day they arrested him, and claim he tried to escape so they had no choice but to off him.
