UN HOUSE BOMBING: Court Orders Suspects To Enter Defence Within 21 Days



Trial Justice Gladys Olotu of the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, Friday, ordered four alleged Boko Haram members that bombed the United Nations headquarters in Abuja on August 20, 2011 to within 21 days, enter their defence against the charge and also gave the government the nod to close its case.

 The suspects, Salisu Mohammed, Inusa Mukailu, Danzumi Haruna and Abdulsalami Adamu, were said to have perfected the terrorist act which killed 23 persons and wounded 75 others.
Among those affected by the explosion included members of staff of the UN, visitors and workers of private businesses stationed within the building.
The accused persons, who are answering to a four-count terrorism charge, were arrested in September 2012 and charged before an Abuja Magistrate court. They were subsequently re-arraigned before the High Court on May 7, this year.
