No Names Were Dropped in Wadume’s Case, Says Malami
 
The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN has said that no names were dropped in the Wadume’s case.
 
He explained that what the Office did was to severe the charges in view of the unavailability of the Soldiers who in their own case need to be released by the military authorities in view of the fact that they were perhaps undergoing military processes before their release.
 
In  a statement issued by his media aide, Dr. Umar Jibrilu Gwandu,on Friday 12th June, 2020, Malami said, the interest of justice requires and legitimately allowed for segmenting the case in the interest of speedy trail.
 
He explained that, “It is in the interest of justice to accord speedy trial to the accused persons that are readily available to stand trial as against delaying at the expense of other co-accused persons who in the peculiarity of this case are not available for immediate arraignment.”
 
According to him,” It is a common practice that absence of a co-accused will not constitute impediment to the progress of a case. Those available are entitled to fair trial and have their case determined within a reasonable time as a matter of Constitutional rights. More so, looking at the fact that the available accused persons are not to be held responsible for the unavailability of the co-accused persons”.
 
The statement  disclosed that the Office of the Attorney-Genral of the Federation and Minister of Justice has taken steps to procure the availability of the co-accused and shall have them arraigned immediately upon procuring their availability by the military authorities.
