Don't arrest or harass Sanusi- Court tells Jonathan, EFCC, ICPC, DSS, others

The Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos has granted an order restraining Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF), Mohammed Adoke; Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mohammed Abubakar; the State Security Service (SSS); and all agencies of the Federal Government from arresting and detaining suspended Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi — or subjecting him to any form of degrading treatment.

Justice Buba Ibrahim granted the order, pending the determination of a fundamental human rights suit in which Sanusi complained of Thursday’s unlawful arrest, detention, and seizure of his passport.
Sanusi deemed the actions violations of his right to personal liberty, freedom of movement, and right to dignity of human person, as guaranteed under Sections 34, 35 and 41 of the 1999 Constitution.

He is represented by former Attorney-general of Lagos State, Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN), and Kola Awodein (SAN).
Justice Buba fixed Friday, 28th February 2014 as return date for the matter.
