Drug business: Abba Kyari’s co-defendants misbehaving detention – NDLEA raises alarm

NDLEA lawyer and director, Prosecution and Legal Services, Joseph Sunday, has stated that co-defendants in the alleged drug trafficking case against suspended DCP Abba Kyari and others are misbehaving in cell.
Sunday made this claim on Monday before Justice Emeka Nwite of a Federal High Court, Abuja.

Sunday, who told Justice Nwite that ASP Bawa James, Insp. Simon Agirigba and Insp. John Nuhu did not conduct themselves well while in their custody, prayed the court to make an order transferring them to a correctional centre.

“The 3rd to 5th defendants were very unruly while in our custody,” he said.
