Despite being granted a N50 million bail by the Federal High Court in Abuja, suspended DCP Abba Kyari will have to remain in DSS custody owing to a separate case he is involved in.
Presiding over the case on Thursday, July 6, Justice James Omotosho explained that the final release of Kyari on bail would depend on developments in a similar case in which he was charged with four others on drug-related crimes.
Justice Omotosho noted that Kyari’s release warrant in respect of the case before him, will only be signed if the other pending criminal cases are concluded or that he is granted bail in those cases as well.
The presiding judge subsequently set October 18 for hearing.
