Barr.Abdullahi Jimba, the Counsel to two petitioners who brought a case of police brutality before the judicial panel of inquiry on #EndSARS protest sitting in Ilorin Kwara state,on Monday, urged the panel to recommend that the fundamental human rights of the petitoners had been trampled upon.

The petitioners: Shuaib Oba Jawando and Alhaji Kehinde Gobir, claimed in their petitions that they were arrested and interrogated for their alleged involvement in April 2018 Offa bank robbery.

They also claimed that they were interrogated by men of the disbanded SARS under dehumanizing conditions in Ilorin and Abuja offices respectively.

Giving his final submission before the panel Jimba said that all that was written in the respondent’s address was not related to the petition.

The counsel also said that the respondent’s address was aimed at attacking the territorial jurisdiction of the judicial panel, urging the panel members to discountenance the address in its entirety.

Earlier, the respondent counsel, Adekunle Iwalaye, sought relief of the panel to dismiss the Jawando and Gobir’s petitions in its entirety.

The chairman of the panel, retired Justice Tunde Garba,assured that the petitions would be dealt with appropriately.
