The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has refused to grant the exparte application filed by the suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari for his release from the custody of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA.

Kyari through his counsel, Cynthia Ikenna told the court that he is diabetic and hypertensive and can not bear the conditions in the custody of NDLEA, hence the application for his release.

But in a short ruling, Justice Inyang Ekwo after studying the averment deposed by Kyari ordered that the NDLEA be put on notice.

The judge adjourned the case till February 24 to enable the two parties appear before him for hearing of the bail application.

The NDLEA also sought an order of court to extend Kyari’s detention pending conclusion of ongoing investigation. DCP Abba Kyari is being prosecuted by the NDLEA on allegations bordering on violation of narcotics law.
