The Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has adjourned until July 27 the N300m fundamental rights enforcement suit filed against the Inspector-General of
Police by suspected kidnap kingpin, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, popularly known as Evans.

Justice Chuka Obiozor adjourned the suit after declining to entertain the case today on the basis that ‘Evans’ lawyer, Olukoya Ogungbeje, had yet to pay the punitive cost of N20,000 awarded against him at the last adjourned date.

Justice Abdulaziz Anka, who awarded the punitive cost against Ogungbeje on July 13, had said the lawyer would not be given audience in court until he paid the N20,000 to the police for failing to inform them of his absence in court at the last sitting Counsel to the Commissioner of Police in Lagos, Effiong Asuquo, noted that Ogungbeje gave him a post-dated cheque for N20,000 but he rejected it, as it was not the order of the court.

Justice Obiozor agreed with the police lawyer and directed Ogungbeje to comply with the order and pay up the cost awarded against him.
