Mfila for a leave of the court to

00:00:39,880 –> 00:00:43,799
travel to the United Kingdom UK for
medical examination, stating that there was no

12
00:00:43,840 –> 00:00:47,560
evidence to show that the defendant is
planned by any ailment. MFLA had thrown

seeking the release of his passport to

00:00:54,560 –> 00:00:58,759
trade, which was opposed by the
Economic and Financial Curants Commission e SEC through

16
00:00:58,759 –> 00:01:03,560
its Prosecution council. Muhammad abass On
Miza Almiza, through a counter of delvit

17
00:01:03,799 –> 00:01:06,879
told the court that there was no
medical report before it that showed that the

18
00:01:06,920 –> 00:01:10,799
defendant was planned by an ailment and
if there was, no evidence was advanced

19
00:01:10,799 –> 00:01:12,799
by the defense to show that it
could not be treated locally in Nigeria.

20
00:01:14,280 –> 00:01:17,799
The Prosecution Council, in addition,
noted that m FLI deposited his passport with

21
00:01:17,879 –> 00:01:21,280
the court as part of the fulfillment
of his bill conditions, arguing that releasing

22
00:01:21,319 –> 00:01:25,000
it to him would amount to the
court varying his bill conditions. Arguing also

23
00:01:25,040 –> 00:01:29,079
that m FLA was a flight risk, the prosecution counsel noted that the defendants

24
00:01:29,079 –> 00:01:32,680
as co conspirators all over the world. One, Anita and Tony are all

25
00:01:32,760 –> 00:01:36,319
ads of the defendants who are currently
in the UK. The defendants might be

26
00:01:36,400 –> 00:01:40,040
tempered to John Will because he is
standing trial in three different courts. In

27
00:01:40,120 –> 00:01:44,760
response, the defense counsel dismissed the
prosecution’s arguments as peculative, noting that the

28
00:01:44,799 –> 00:01:48,879
EFAC can issue an international rein allert
on m FLA to enable his arrest if

29
00:01:48,879 –> 00:01:52,439
he meant the foreign medical trip and
refused to come back. In dismissing the

30
00:01:52,480 –> 00:01:56,680
application on Tuesday, Justice Marzu held
that there was no medical report indicating that

31
00:01:57,599 –> 00:02:00,879
mflal was planned by any ailments,
and that the fact that his standing trial

32
00:02:00,920 –> 00:02:04,519
in three different courts was fatal to
the application. It is an exercise of

33
00:02:04,560 –> 00:02:07,959
the courts discretion to allow the defendants
to go on a medical tree. The

34
00:02:07,080 –> 00:02:10,360
defendants, through his counsel, undertook
and apidelty to produce him in court,

35
00:02:10,599 –> 00:02:14,360
and his offenses are vailable, and
where there is need for the court to

36
00:02:14,360 –> 00:02:16,800
grant him the application to travel,
the court should do so. But as

37
00:02:16,800 –> 00:02:21,680
it is, I failed to see
any letter of medication in the defendant’s applications.

38
00:02:21,919 –> 00:02:24,400
As it stands, I cannot exercise
my discretion to allow the defendants to

39
00:02:24,400 –> 00:02:28,800
travel out of the shores of the
country Moroma. He is also standing trial

40
00:02:28,840 –> 00:02:31,599
in three other courts. Therefore,
the application has failed and hereby dis leased.
