EndSARS panel orders NDLEA to produce Abba Kyari over missing detainees
The #EndSARS panel investigating cases of police brutality in Abuja, on Friday, ordered the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency to produce Abba Kyari over an allegation of enforced disappearance of three persons levelled against his former police unit.
While still serving the suspension, the police officer, who has a series of petitions of rights violations pending against him and the IRT operatives before the #EndSARS panel, was arrested over cocaine trafficking-related offences, while the Nigerian government pursues a suit for his extradition to the U.S. in court.
Fielding questions from a panel member, John Aikpokpo-Martins, who presided over Friday’s proceedings, Mr Idachaba said a member of his team, Malik Taiwo, had also checked the IRT’s previous detention facilities and could not find any of the three detained persons. Ismail Mairungo, a brother to Messrs Yakubu and Daniel, as well as Blessing Choji-Dung, wife of Mr Dung, had appeared before the #EndSARS panel on March 3 to testify on their joint petition.
