Nine years after businessman’s disappearance, IGP releases police abduction casefile to AGF

Her latest legal victory came on 24 September last year when Mrs Nyako, the Federal High Court judge, ordered the IGP to release the duplicate case file and investigation reports to her, arrest the officers identified as the principal suspects, hand them over to the AGF for prosecution and pay N2 million in damages for violating her right to information.

He noted that the outstanding orders include the release of the certified true copy of the duplicate case file to Mrs Anozie, the arrest of the two police officers identified as the principal suspects in her husband’s disappearance, their handover to the AGF for prosecution, and compliance with the court’s order directing the payment of N2 million damages awarded to Mrs Anozie for the violation of her right to access information.“I hereby forward an acknowledgement of the forwarded case file to the Honourable Attorney General’s office by the Nigeria Police Force as requested by the order of the Court in the suit accordingly,” Mr Nwodo told the court in the filing.
