Suspected billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme
Onwuamadike a.k.a. Evans, on Wednesday, filed a fundamental rights enforcement
action before the Lagos Federal High Court in Lagos, urging the court to order
the police to charge him to court or release him immediately.
Joined as respondents in the
said suit marked FHC/L/CS/1012/2017 are the Nigeria Police Force, Commissioner
of Police, Lagos State and the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Lagos State Police
Command.
In a fundamental rights
enforcement suit filed on his behalf by a Lagos-based lawyer, Olukoya
Ogungbeje, the suspected kidnapper is seeking for a court’s order directing the
respondents to immediately charge him to court if there is any case against him
in accordance with Sections 35
(1) (c) (3) (4) (5) (a) (b) and 36 of the Constitution.
He is on the alternative
seeking for an order compelling the respondents to immediately release him
unconditionally in the absence of any offence that will warrant his being
charged to court.
Evans is contending that his
continued detention by the respondents since June 10, 2017, without being
charged to court or released on bail is an infringement on his fundamental
human rights.
