I have not been served with criminal charge – Dino Melaye by Whizee(m) : 7:26 pm |
The counsel for Senator Dino Melaye, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), said on Tuesday his client was yet to be served with a criminal charge filed by the police. He alleged that the police was planning to declare the senator wanted when the charge was already before a court. Ozekhome spoke while asking Justice Mohammed Idris of the Federal High Court in Lagos to excuse him. The Senior Advocate was before the judge for the hearing of a suit filed by First Lady Dame Patience Jonathan who is seeking to unfreeze her accounts with $15.5million. According to the Nation, Ozekhome is representing two of the companies in whose Skye Bank Plc accounts the money is domiciled. Explaining why he needed to leave halfway into the proceedings, Ozekhome said he had a flight to catch to Abuja en route Lokoja, Kogi State capital, where he was going to defend Melaye.
The police said on Saturday it may declare Melaye, who represents Kogi West, and Alhaji Mohammed Audu, wanted if they refuse to comply with the court’s order. Melaye and Audu are expected to appear before the Federal High Court, Lokoja, on Wednesday, to answer to criminal charges against them.
