Suspected billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike aka Evans
Suspected billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike aka
Evans, has again dragged the Inspector General of Police, and three
others before a Federal High Court in Lagos over his alleged illegal
detention.
In the new suit filed on Thursday, Evans is claiming N300 million
as general and exemplary damages against the police for alleged illegal
detention and unconstitutional media trial.
Joined as respondents in his new originating motion are the Nigeria
Police Force, the Commissioner of Police Lagos State and the Special
Anti-Robbery Squad, Lagos State Police Command.
Evans had on June 28 filed an ex parte applicatwith referenceence
number FHC/L/CS/1012/2017, before the same court, seeking an order
directing the respondents to charge him to court.
He had also in the alternative, sought an order directing the
respondents to release him unconditionally where no charge is preferred
against him.
In an affidavit deposed to by his father, Mr Stephen Onwuamadike,
it was averred that the applicant has been subjected to media trial
without any court order by the respondents.
Onwuamadike further averred that the media trial and news
orchestrated by the respondents have continued to generate reactions in
both print and electronic media without his son being afforded fair
hearing before a court of law.
Evans contended that his continued detention by the respondents
since June 10, without a charge, or release on bail , is an infringement
on his fundamental rights.
In his new suit also marked FHC/L/CS/1012/ 2017 and with the same
persons as respondents, the applicant is seeking a declaration that his
continued detention since June 10 without arraignment, violates his
fundamental rights as guaranteed under the 1999 Constitution.
He is also seeking a declaration that his parade on June 11 before
journalists in Lagos, at the Lagos Police Command Headquarters in Ikeja,
without any court order, is unconstitutional and illegal .
He is consequently, seeking an order, compelling the respondents to
immediately arraign him before a law court, or release him from custody
forthwith.
‘Evans’’ is also seeking an order, compelling the respondents to
jointly and severally, pay him the sum of N300 million as exemplary
damages for illegal detention and alleged harm caused by the alleged
media trial.
The suspect is also seeking an order of perpetual injunction,
restraining the respondents from further arresting, detaining,
harassing, investigating or inviting him in relation to the facts of his
case.
He is also seeking further orders as the court may deem fit, to make in the circumstances.
No date has been fixed for hearing in his latest suit.
