NIGER STATE CHIEF JUDGE BERATES POLICE LEGAL UNIT

Chief Judge of Niger state, Justice Halima Abdulmalik, has described as unacceptable, delays and the constant refusal of the legal unit of the state police command to forward case files of suspects to the Ministry of Justice for legal advice.

Justice Abdulmalik said this at the Minna old medium security custodial centre, as part of an ongoing visit to custodial centres across the state.

The Chief Judge said the legal department of the state police command is allowing inmates remain in custodial centres without trial in court, which she said is highly worrisome.

The Chief Judge described the police action as deliberately aimed at incarcerating these inmates, by giving the same excuse for case files,while they keep on saying an investigation is ongoing without completion.

She advised the police in the Legal Unit of the Niger State Police Command, to work in partnership with the office of the Director of Public Prosecution, (DPP), in the Ministry of Justice, to bring about a speedy administration of justice.

Justice Abdulmalik said the ineptitude of the legal department of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, (SCIID) is painful, and will no longer be accepted.

She directed the Director of Public Prosecution, DPP, in the state Ministry of Justice, Barrister Mohammed Kutigi, to expedite action on the duplicated case files.
