A high court sitting in Port Harcourt this morning October 17th granted bail to four out of the twelve
persons facing trial in the murder case of the four Uniport students.
The four are: Omoikiri Aluu monarch: Alhaji Welewa, Okoghiroh Endurance, Ozioma Abajuo
and Chigozie Evans Samuel.
Presiding Judge, Justice Letan Nyordee granted them bail on
grounds that their offense is not a capital offense and is bailable.
They were granted bail to the tune of N2 million with two sureties and
the court asked the sureties to submit their passports. The sureties
mus also have landed property in Port Harcourt and must show means of
livelihood and evidence of paying tax for two years. The other eight
suspects were refused bail
due to the murder charges against them.
The court also admitted the photographs negatives and the Youtube CD of the incident tendered as exhibits in the matter.
Dear Nigerian police, please also arrest and prosecute the men who
murdered 2 innocent young men in Badagry in July. Thank you! The sooner
we criminalize jungle justice, the better for us all!
