Court Sets June 30 For Trial Of Kenny Martins, Three Others Over N7.74bn Alleged Fraud
A High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, on Wednesday, rescheduled till June 30, 2020 for the trial of Kenny Martins who is being prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for alleged N7.74bn Police Equipment Fund, (PEF) fraud.
Justice Modupe Adebiyi of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, had earlier scheduled Tuesday, April 28, 2020 for the trial.
But the April 28 date was not feasible in the light of the shutdown of courts by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Tanko Muhammad, following the lockdown in force in Abuja and many other parts of the country to curb the spread of COVID-19 pandemic.
The EFCC is prosecuting Martins, former coordinator of the police equipment fund (PEF), following his alleged connivance with three others to “embezzle about N7.740 billion”.
