The Supreme Court, on Friday, declined to quash Federal Government’s directive that froze various bank accounts that were traced to late former Head of State, Sani Abacha, and his family members, in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Jersey, Liechtenstein and Luxembourg.
In a unanimous decision, a five-man panel of Justices of the apex court, led by Justice Centus Nweze, dismissed the appeal a brother to the late military dictator, Alhaji Ali Abacha, filed for the family to be allowed access to the bank accounts.
The apex court held that the substantive case that led to the appeal was already statute barred as at April 2004 when it was commenced at the Federal High Court in Kaduna.
