There was pandemonium at the Court of Appeal in Benin City late Friday as suspected thugs allegedly supported by persons in security outfit uniforms, invaded a courtroom, chased away court workers and carted away several documents.

It was gathered that some lawyers had approached the appellate court to file an appeal arising from a judgment of the state High Court on issues relating to the crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party in Edo State.

A lawyer, who pleaded anonymity for security reasons, said he was shuttling between a business centre in Akpakpava and the Appeal Court, which is temporarily operating from a section of the Edo State High Court premises along Sapele Road, when the incident happened. “They retained our services and we quickly swung into action and we were at the court to file necessary documents because the state high court had refused to join us as interested parties and then went ahead to give the ruling.
