Funds Diversion: Ganduje, wife escapes arrest warrant as Court okays trial in absentia
A Kano State High Court presided over by Justice Aminu Adamu Aliyu has ruled that former Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, his wife, and six others would not face a Bench Warrant in a case of alleged funds diversion.
Justice Amina Adamu Aliyu stated that her judgement was based on political tensions in the state, and she was concerned that some individuals might use the court’s actions to provoke mayhem.
She then struck out the prayers for a bench warrant against the former governor and his wife.
However, the Judge said that the defendants whom she knows were served with a substituted means of service but refused to appear in court would be tried even in absentia.
Meanwhile, the Prosecution Counsel, led by Adeola Adediyo SAN, had asked the Court to slam a Bench Warrant on Ganduje, his Wife and six others.
