By: Valentine Adese (JP),

There is already a twist in the case of the Nigerian Police against Noah Kekere, Dr. Philip Bewde Dachung and Yusuf Abdullahi, as the Police has told the Magistrate Court of Plateau State that, the Respondents/Defendants are been investigated for alleged offences of Defilement,  Armed Robbery, Kidnapping, Theft, Rape, Unlawful possession of fire arms.

The Police, stated this in its Affidavit in support of the Motion Exparte dated the 18^th of September, 2023, seeking an order of court to remand the Respondents/Defendants at the Correctional Center in Jos, Plateau State.

The Police on the face of the Motion, brought the Motion pursuant to Section 307 of the Plateau State Administration of Criminal Justice law and Paragraph II of the Administration of Criminal Justice Practice Direction of Plateau State, N0. 1 of 2021 and under Section 6 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended).

The Police in its written address in support of the Motion Exparte, told the Magistrate Court in part that:

1. The Respondents were arrested in connection with alleged offences of Defilement, Armed Robbery, Kidnapping, Theft, Rape, Unlawful Possession of fire arms, etc, by agents of the Applicant and detained in the Applicant’s custody at State CID.
2. At the conclusion of the investigation, prima facie case of commission of the alleged offences were revealed against the Respondents and charge were preferred and filed against the Respondents at the High Court of Justice, Plateau State.
3. That while waiting for date for arraignment of the Respondents by the High Court, the Applicant’s facilities in which the Respondent are detained became congested and the condition of the said facilities depreciated and became unconducive for the health of the Respondent and there is every likelihood of outbreak of epidemic due to over congestion in the facilities.
4. In order to avert he occurrence of the aforementioned incident, Applicant filed this Motion and pray this Honourable Court to remand the Respondents at the Correctional Center custody in Jos.

You would recall that, a section of the media had earlier reported and alleging that, the Respondents, Noah Kekere, Dr. Philip Bewde Dachung and Yusuf Abdullahi, were arrested over alleged Organ Harvesting of Kidneys from patients. Adding that, over 6 patients have already come forward to testify.

They had also reported that, Mr. Noah is already feigning that he is mentally unstable after his arrest.

In a swift reaction to the development, the Respondents/Defendants, Noah Kekere, Dr. Philip Bewde Dachung and Yusuf Abdullahi, have approached a Chief Magistrate Court of Plateau State sitting in Jos, the state Capital, in case No: CMC/JMDB/M133/2023, for the order granted the Police on the 18 of September, 2023 to be vacated and an order setting aside the remand order.

From facts check before the Court, the Bailiff of the Court, Agwom Bulus, has filed an “Affidavit of Unserved Writ”, dated 21^st September, 2023, stating that the Police refused to collect the process.

“They effused to collect the process stating that matter is with the Ministry of Justice hence they cannot collect the Motion”. Agwom Bulus stated in the affidavit sighted by REALITY.
