The accused are facing charges bordering on causing public disturbance, criminal conspiracy, mischief by fire and unlawful assembly, for allegedly protesting against the Supreme Court judgement on the state governorship election petition.

Our correspondent recalls that the bail application was filed last Friday by the counsel to the defendants,Barr. Ayiwulu Baba Ayiwulu.

Ayiwulu pleaded with the court to temper justice with mercy by granting the defendants bail, assuring that they would not jump bail,if granted.

The Counsel to the Commissioner of Police, Barr.Danjuma Allu urged the court to grant him a “short date” to reply to the bail application in accordance to the provision of the law.

The Magistrate Lanze in refusing to grant the bail application, however, told the Commissioner of Police to produce the defendants in court on the said date for hearing of their bail application.
