ABUJA—The Senator representing Kwara Central and former governor of Kwara State, Senator Bukola Saraki, has obtained an interim injunction restraining the Inspector-General of Police, his officers and agents from threatening to arrest him or infringe on his rights pending the determination of the substantive suit on Thursday, May 26.
The motion of notice, which was filed in Federal High Court 4, Abuja by his lawyer, Mr. Lawal Raban, SAN, was served and duly received by the Commissioner of Police, Legal on Tuesday.
A statement by Saraki's Media Aide, Akintoba Fatigun, said: "As a law-abiding citizen, Senator Saraki has decided to seek legal redress to put a stop to what appears an orchestrated frenzy calculated at smearing his name, assaulting his dignity and intimidating his person through deliberately garbled accounts and serial leaks concerning loans granted to a company that he has no relationship with."
