Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche |
The
alleged mastermind of the April 14 Nyanya bomb blast, Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche
Thursday told the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja that he is being
illegally detained by the State Security Service, SSS, and as such should be
released since the court had struck out the charge on which he was arrested and
being detained.
He
therefore prayed the Federal High Court, Abuja Division to compel SSS to pay
him the sum of N100 million as compensation for his unlawful arrest and
detention without trial and a published apology in two national dailies.
He
said this through his counsel Ahmed Raji (SAN). his counsel brought
an application pursuant to Order 2, Rule (1),(2),(3) of the Fundamental
Enforcement Procedure rule and Sections 34,35,36,37 and 42 of the 1999
Constitution seeking for the enforcement of his fundamental human right.
After
listening to the accused person’s lawyer, Justice Adeniyi Ademola adjourned the
case for the prosecution to show cause as to why the orders should not be
granted in favour of Ogwuche.
