The Federal High Court, Abuja, has scheduled a ruling on October 26 on the no-case submission filed by former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai in his ongoing trial over alleged unlawful interception of the telephone communications of the National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu
Justice Joyce Abdulmalik set the date on Tuesday after El-Rufai’s lawyer and the prosecution’s lawyer delivered their final addresses on the no-case submission.
In his no-case submission, El-Rufai contends that the prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case against him, thereby not warranting his being called upon to enter a defence, a position the prosecution has countered.
The Department of State Services (DSS) is prosecuting El-Rufai on a five-count amended charge.
