They were arraigned before Magistrate Mrs M.I. Tanimola over a two-count conspiracy charge and conduct likely to cause a public peace breach under the State’s Criminal Laws.
The prosecutor, Inspector Lucky Ihiehie, informed the court that the defendants allegedly committed the offences on December 20, 2024, at the premises of the Ilori Magistrate Court.

Ihiehie also claimed that the lawyers created a nuisance at the court, leading to their arrest by officers from the Pen Cinema Division, who subsequently charged them in court.

The defendants, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.
