A Federal High Court in Abuja has discharged and acquitted Abba Kyari, a suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, of a 23-count charge of alleged non-declaration of assets filed against him by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
Delivering judgment on Thursday, Justice James Omotosho ruled that the prosecution failed to establish sufficient evidence to prove the allegations against Kyari and the other defendants.
According to the court, the case presented by the NDLEA did not meet the required legal standard to sustain the charges, leading to the discharge and acquittal of the suspended police officer.
The ruling marks a significant development in the long-running legal battle involving the controversial police officer, whose case has attracted widespread public attention across Nigeria.
More reactions are expected from legal analysts, security stakeholders, and the public following the court’s decision.
