CRIME NEWS: ECOWAS Court Orders FG To Pay N15m For ‘Unlawfully’ Arresting Dasuki

The Court of the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, today, Tuesday October 4, declared the arrest and detention of former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, as unlawful and
arbitrary. Mr. Dasuki is facing multiple trials for alleged diversion of $2.1 billion meant for the purchase of arms in the immediate past administration.

The court said government failed to prove its reasons for arresting and detaining Mr. Dasuki, as documents presented before it only emphasised the allegations of fraud and illegal possession of arms.

The court ruled that Federal Government should pay a sum of N15 million as damages to Mr. Dasuki. It also decided that the cost of litigation will be summed up and charged against the Nigerian government.

Dasuki approached the ECOWAS court after he was rearrested by members of Nigeria’s State Security Service shortly after meeting his bail conditions in November last year. He has remained in the custody of the SSS since his arrest.
The court also ordered immediate release of Dasuki from prison.
