$9.6bn: P&ID Accuses Buhari’s Govt Of Abuse Of INTERPOL System
The Process and Industrial Development Limited awarded $9.6billion judgement against Nigeria has accused President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration of abuse of INTERPOL system following alleged plans to use the Interpol against some individual linked to P&ID.
P&ID alleged that the Buhari government was planning to evade the legal judgement by devising political means of wriggling out of it.
The firm in an electronic statement to BIGPEN Online late Monday night said that the ‘INTERPOL Red Notice request’ purportedly by the federal government is a total abuse of the INTERPOL system and should be rejected.
According to P&ID, the procedure is a mechanism to assist law enforcement agencies apprehend and prosecute criminals across international borders and not to be used for political point scoring, advancing a political agenda or to assist countries from avoiding their lawful obligations as allegedly being done by the Buhari administration.
P&ID said: “The Buhari Administration’s purported plan to apply for an INTERPOL Red Notice against individuals linked to P&ID is a desperate and pathetic effort to stave off the almost $10 billion arbitration award owed to P&ID.
“The Buhari Administration’s Red Notice request is a total abuse of the INTERPOL system and should be rejected. There is zero basis in fact or law for the Buhari Administration’s action: this is purely a political ploy in Nigeria’s campaign to evade a legal judgement.
“The Buhari Administration’s request is founded solely on a totally unlawful and politically-motivated investigation that has fabricated evidence, coerced confessions, ignored due process, and has been conducted with blatant disregard for fundamental human rights.
“The Nigerian Government’s allegations have been consistently rejected in Court: as a result, they are resorting to threats, bullying and legal nihilism. The application to INTERPOL is just more of the same: the use of violence and the organs of state power to threaten, detain, charge and jail innocent individuals linked to P&ID.”
