JUST IN: Dino Melaye Regains Freedom, Files Suit Against IGP In Court

Senator Dino Melaye

Senator Dino Melaye, the Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District in the National Assembly,  has regained freedom after over two weeks in detention.

Melaye’s freedom was sequel to the bail granted him by a high court in Abuja on health grounds.

In his ruling, Justice Yusuf Halilu said Melaye should be allowed to attend to his health as he could not be arraigned on a stretcher or on his hospital bed.

Halilu ordered the senator to present three sureties who reside and have property in Abuja, emphasising that one of the sureties must be the clerk of the national assembly who would provide a letter attesting that Melaye will always be available for trial.

After fulfilling his bail conditions, Melaye filed a suit against the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), seeking that the police do not arrest him.
