Justice Obiora Egwuatu dismissed the charge on Tuesday after the withdrawal of the charges by the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Prince Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, on behalf of the federal government.

The Director of Public Prosecution, Mohammed Abubakar, had at the proceedings announced his exercise of Section 174 of the 1999 Constitution to take over the case from the Inspector General of Police.

Upon the grant of the request by Justice Egwuatu, the AGF proceeded to request for invocation of the same section of the Constitution to discontinue the trial of the 150 accused persons.

Following no objections to the request from various lawyers representing the accused persons, Justice Egwuatu granted the request and struck out the charges.

Although, the accused persons were not in court, the Judge ordered their immediate release from prison remand.
