Colonel Sambo Dasuki
The FG has lost its bid to conduct a secret trial of the former National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki (RTD) in the charges of unlawful possession of firearms and money laundering.
Delivering ruling in an application for secret trial, Justice Adeniyi Ademola held that the FG had in the charge held against Dasuki listed the names and addresses of 11 witnesses to be called to testify against him and made same available to the general public and as such there was no basis for any hide and seek game in Dasuki's trial.
In the Dasuki case, Justice Ademola said that government failed to establish any fact that the life of its witnesses was being threatened and as such no court of law would accede to such requests without established reason.
