The Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday adjourned the trial of five men accused of failure to disclose the whereabouts of former Gov. Timipre Sylva of Bayelsa until Oct. 5.
The case, which was fixed for commencement of trial before Justice Peter Lifu, could not go on because the court did not sit.
The matter was subsequently fixed for Oct. 5 after the court vacation.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the five suspects, Reuben Ayuba, Musa Mohammed, Friday Paul, Paganengigha Anagaha and Ayebaifie Suobite, were arraigned on July 1 by the Department of State Services (DSS).
They were arraigned on a two-count charge.
