The Court of Appeal in Abuja has dismissed an appeal made by the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Sunday Ubua wherein he sought to be admitted to bail.
Ubua before his arrest had been the associate of the suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, and is being prosecuted together by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, for unlawful drug dealings and other charges.
In the Appeal Court’s judgment on Friday, March 17, a three-member panel of the appellate court held that the appeal by Ubua was without merit and had stood by the ruling by Justice Nwite, delivered on March 28, 2022.
Recall that Ubua is currently standing trial with Kyari and three other ex-members of the Intelligence Response Team, Force Investigation and Intelligence Department of the Nigeria Police Force on charges bordering on unlawful drug dealing and attempting to tamper with evidence.
