A fundamental rights enforcement suit filed by Adeniyi Adeyemi, the Director-General of the controversial Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC), on Thursday suffered a setback.
Adeyemi sued the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF), the Inspector-General (I-G) of Police, the Nigeria Police Force and the Assistant-Inspector-General of Police as 1st to 4th respondents, respectively.
The alleged fake DG, through his lawyer, Ademola Oyedokun, sought six reliefs before Justice Obiora Egwuatu.
Adeyemi, who is currently in police custody, had prayed the court to admit him to bail, release him from detention and allow him to seek medical attention from health practitioners of his own choice over his alleged ill health.
He also sought an order restraining the police or any other officers or agents from interrogating him or directing him to make, adopt or sign any statement, save in the presence of a legal practitioner of his own choice.
