Abuja Federal High Court, Abuja, on Thursday rejected the bail application for Abdulrasheed Maina, a former Chairman of defunct Pension Reformed Task Force Team (PRTT) bail.
Recall that the court, on November 18, 2020, revoked Maina’s bail and ordered his arrest after he jumped bail.
The court also granted the EFCC’s request that his trial in the fraud charges is conducted in his absence.
The anti-graft agency urged the Federal High Court, Abuja not to set aside its order of Nov 18, 2020, against the former Chairman of the defunct PRTT.
Counsel to the EFCC, Mohammed Abubakar, told Justice Okon Abang to reject Maina’s request on the ground that it was made to delay justice in his trial.
