JUST IN: Court Grants DCP Abba Kyari Bail

The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has granted former Commander of IGP Intelligence Response Team, DCP Abba Kyari bail.

Kyari was granted bail for two weeks on Wednesday.

According to the court, the two-week bail would enable Kyari to return home to conclude his mother’s burial rites.

The former IRT boss lost his mother a few weeks ago.

Upon his return, a bail application he has applied for would be heard and determined which date has been set for Friday, May 31, according to court papers.

The former IRT boss was arrested on February 14, 2022, by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) and has been fighting for bail in a case his lawyer said is bailable.
