The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has discharged and acquitted two Chinese nationals, Hao Aijun and Liu Yangxi, who were accused of engaging in forgery and fraud.

The court, in the judgement that was delivered by Justice Nnamdi Dimgba, equally absorbed a Nigerian, Obi Anthony Chibuzor, of any complicity in the alleged crime.

The trial judge upheld arguments by lawyer to Aijun and Yangxi, Mr. Akinlolu Kehinde, SAN, and counsel to Chibuzor, Anozie Obi, stressing that the prosecution, represented by M. O. Omosun, failed to prove its case. The court further held that the prosecution failed to call necessary witnesses, who would have supplied vital evidence to support the charge.Insecurity: INEC ready to conduct election in every part of Imo

“I also hereby discharge and acquit the 3rd defendant on count five for the same reasons and add that the offence of uttering cannot be sustained when there is no forgery established,” Justice Dimgba held.
