Court Denies Abdulrasheed Mania Bail

By Damilola Adeyemo

ABUJA – Federal High Court in Abuja has denied former Chairman of the defunct Pension Reformed Taskforce Team, Abdulrasheed Maina, bail.

In a statement, Justice Abang said He has disappointed the court,”

According to PUNCH Abang who refused to grant Maina’s application for an order directing the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to release his confiscated property, including a BMW Car, also dismissed his request for an order to set aside the Nov. 18 and Dec. 4, 2020 orders.

The court on November 18, 2020, ordered the trial of Maina in absentia after he jumped bail.

Also on December 4, 2020, the court ordered Maina to be remanded in prison custody pending the hearing and final determination of his matter.

But Maina, who jumped bail last year and fled to the Republic of Niger before his rearrest, had on December 24, 2020, applied for another bail.
