JUST IN: Court dismisses fleeing Binance executive’s suit against NSA, EFCC

A Federal High Court in Abuja, today, dismissed a fundamental rights enforcement suit filed by fleeing Binance Holdings Ltd’s executive, Nadeem Anjarwalla, against the National Security Adviser, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Justice Inyang Ekwo, in a ruling, dismissed the suit for lack of diligent prosecution.

When the case was called, no lawyer appeared for Anjarwalla and neither was the applicant in court.

In his ruling, Justice Ekwo noted that on March 28 when the matter came up, Tonye Krukrubo, SAN, who appeared for Anjarwalla sought a leave to withdraw his appearance in the matter and the application was granted.

He said the matter was adjourned until today for mention but no lawyer appeared for the applicant.
