(Breaking) Terrorism Charge: Appeal Court Discharges Kanu, Cites Faulty Extradition Process *Says trial court lacks jurisdiction due to faulty extrad

The Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal on Thursday discharged the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra , Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, from the 15-count terrorism charge brought against him by the federal government.

According to the judgment, the arrest, abduction and subsequent arraignment of Kanu before a Federal High Court violated international convention on terrorism and thus robbed any court of law in Nigeria necessary jurisdiction to entertain the suit. According to the three man panel, the issue of jurisdiction is very key in any trial and must be resolved before further issues once raised.

According to the judgment, the federal government violated international convention on terrorism, which it is a signatory, when it illegally arrested Kanu in Kenya and extraordinarily brought him to Nigeria for trial.
