The Federal Government has ordered an investigation into the Friday invasion of the Federal High Court, Abuja, by the operatives of the Department of State Secret Service, SSS.
Recall that the SSS operatives had allegedly forced themselves into the courtroom in their bid to re-arrest the convener of RevolutionNow Movement, Omowole Sowore who is in court over alleged felony offence.
The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, made the disclosure on Wednesday while speaking with newsmen on the premises of the Federal High Court in Abuja.
Speaking on the alleged invasion by the SSS, Mr Malami said, “Whatever affects the integrity of the court is a worrisome issue for us.
“I can never be preemptive of an incident over which I was not a live witness to.”
He added, “But one thing I am certain of is that the government has put in place mechanism for investigation of the reported incident.
“So, I would not like to be preemptive in terms of a conclusion, one way or the other, without allowing the consummation and conclusion of the investigation process.”
