00:12:57,080 –> 00:13:01,919
the Custodia. The transfer of missis the une Idris from

Section sixteen four B of the Nigelia Correctional Service at

175
00:13:19,679 –> 00:13:25,200
twenty nineteen. The panel also found that mister kune Idris

176
00:13:25,440 –> 00:13:30,679
enjoyed several privileges while in custody both at the medium

177
00:13:30,759 –> 00:13:37,600

178
00:13:37,679 –> 00:13:43,519

to freege and television and possibly access to his form.

184
00:14:06,120 –> 00:14:10,240
It is necessary to further investigate if they are both

185
00:14:10,360 –> 00:14:17,240
privileges provided for kunair Idris. We are financially motivated and

186
00:14:17,399 –> 00:14:22,240
based on corrop practices by corretional officers. The panel believes

187
00:14:22,919 –> 00:14:26,399
that the peculiar case of the inmates and the inmates

188
00:14:26,480 –> 00:14:30,679
physical look and behavior pause a treat and the lack

189
00:14:30,840 –> 00:14:33,240
of laid down rules for the treatment of such a

190
00:14:33,320 –> 00:14:38,639
case may have necessitated such privileges to be granted to

191
00:14:39,080 –> 00:14:40,000
kunair Idris.

192
00:14:40,720 –> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 3: On the issue of apt Rashid.

00:14:48,000 –> 00:14:51,679

195
00:14:51,720 –> 00:14:56,200
Deputy Controller of Correctionionals care then in love for se Eqateable.

196
00:14:56,879 –> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 3: This was found to be true.

197
00:14:58,960 –> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 4: The panel is of the view that DC see Kevin

198
00:15:03,679 –> 00:15:08,080

199
00:15:08,559 –> 00:15:13,000
and the Nigeral Correctional Service to great disrepute by requesting

200
00:15:13,480 –> 00:15:17,960
and receiving money into his personal account from advers feet.

201
00:15:18,200 –> 00:15:22,639
Speaker 5: My last song for us we have not him to hide,

202
00:15:22,960 –> 00:15:26,639

203
00:15:26,679 –> 00:15:30,519
cleaning the losses and making sure that will build strong

204
00:15:30,679 –> 00:15:35,080
institutions you know, and will build institutions that I believe,

205
00:15:35,240 –> 00:15:38,440
each and every one of them. The Dround Correctional Service

206
00:15:38,639 –> 00:15:44,840
is a key institution within our justice system, within even

207
00:15:44,919 –> 00:15:46,480
the national security architecture.

208
00:15:46,759 –> 00:15:50,039

209
00:15:50,759 –> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 6: And therefore any form of corruption, any form of my fices,

210
00:15:55,399 –> 00:16:00,360
heaving form of appeals of power, torture, who elt in

211
00:16:00,639 –> 00:16:03,799
homing and degrading treatment will never be accepted.

212
00:16:04,519 –> 00:16:06,039
Speaker 1: So for us, when.

213
00:16:06,000 –> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 5: Started the journey, whoever the officer might be, I don’t

214
00:16:09,840 –> 00:16:13,679
care where he’s wrong. You will find wanting according to

216
00:16:18,639 –> 00:16:23,440
board and will make sure that those officers their actions

217
00:16:23,519 –> 00:16:26,639
are bettered with the sort of sumptions and discipline that

218
00:16:26,960 –> 00:16:28,200
