“Today’s jail delivery is not for convicted inmates or inmates whose cases are pending in court but those detained above their jail term without trial.”

The Chief Judge of Enugu State, Justice Priscilla Emehelu, on Wednesday released 14 inmates unconditionally during the 2019 jail delivery at the Nigeria Correctional Service, Nsukka Custodian Centre.

She said: “I encourage those released today and those released in previous exercise to ensure they reformed themselves and stay away from all forms of criminality. “The objective of this exercise is to decongest correctional centres in the state as well as ensure justice,” she said. “The denial is a bench of constitutional right as well as fundamental right of these inmates,” she said.
