Delta State Seek Speedy Bail As New Judge Resumes In Federal High Court Warri
The Federal High Court Chief Judge, Justice John Tsoho, has posted a new judge to the Federal High Court, Warri Judicial Division, after Reporters exposed how the court had no presiding judge since September and cases were delaying and piling up.
Going by the posting, relatives and friends of the awaiting trial inmates have called on the newly posted judge, Justice I.M. Sani to grant bail to innocent inmates incarcerated in prison by “powerful” individuals.
The court (Warri judicial division) is without a judge to man proceedings and trials filed by litigants at the court.
Meanwhile, relatives and friends of the Awaiting Trial Inmates (ATM) remanded at the Federal Correctional Centre Warri have called on the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court to visit the Federal Correctional Centre, Warri, to review cases of inmates remanded by the Federal High Court Warri Judicial Division.
They stated that the visit of the judge was in order to release them from prison custody, especially those who are on remand on trump-up charges sponsored by powerful individuals.
Reporters gathered that most of the awaiting trial inmates remanded by the Federal High Court have been on bail but with stringent conditions.
Also, others are on trial for over four years without progress in the trial while some have fallen victims to illegal bail bond business racketeers.
