The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of
Justice, Abubakar Malami, on Sunday, faulted reports that he had conclusively
exonerated the suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari who is
facing trial before Justice Inyang Ekwo of a Federal High Court in Abuja on
charges of illegal drug business.
Malami said this in a statement issued by his Special
Assistant (Media and Public Relations), Dr. Umar Gwandu in Abuja.
According to him, there appeared to be a “misunderstanding
regarding the issue.”
He said, “It was a case of work in progress in respect of
which the office of the Attorney General of the Federation requested for
further probe in relation to some aspects of investigation.
“It was clear that the conclusion on the alleged
contradiction on the issue was a clear case of misconception.
“The office of the
Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice’s stance is that no
conclusion has been reached in the direction of absence of evidence relating to
the first report.
“The issues were raised for further investigation with a
view to cover the field in investigation in order to arrive at an informed
decision.”
