The Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday rejected an application for an order directing the police to remove their men from Senator Dino Melaye’s Abuja residence.
A detachment of policemen had been occupying the senator’s premises for about a week in their bid to arrest him for an alleged crime.
Ruling on an ex-parte application filed by Melaye seeking an order ending the police occupation of his premises, Justice N. E Maha refused to grant the application but chose to grant an accelerated hearing in the main suit.
