Federal High Court in Abuja has reportedly ruled out a suit instituted by the Federal Government seeking to extradite the suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police DCP, Abba Kyari to the United States of America.

Justice Inyang Eden Ekwo, in a judgment on Monday, held that the extradition request filed by the Attorney General of the Federation, AGF, on behalf of the Federal Government lacked merit and is liable to dismissal.

The FG filed the extradition charges against the suspended police chief to pave way for his extradition to America to answer fraud allegations involving international confidence trickster, Ramon Abbas, popularly known as Hushpuppi.

Justice Ekwo, however, held that the Federal Government has no basis to file the extradition request having put Abba Kyari on trial in Nigeria in relation to the allegations against him in America.
