Hushpuppi: Malami Warns Court Against Granting Bail For Abba Kyari
LAGOS APRIL 5TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) and Justice Minister Abubakar Malami has cautioned a Federal High Court (FHC) in Abuja against granting bail to suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Abba Kyari in his ongoing extradition case.
Malami, in a counter-affidavit to the bail application by Kyari., said the embattled officer could abscond if his request was granted.
Head, Central Authority Unit (CAU) of the Federal Ministry of Justice, Akutah Ukeyima, said in a supporting written address, that the embattled officers could face no less than 20 years in jail if tried and convicted in the United States (US).
In his affidavit, the AGF told the court that Kyari was being untruthful about his health going by the fact that the medical report he ‘parades’ was issued three years ago.
