Aghogho, who was being detained on trumped-up charges of “cyberstalking, giving false information to the police, and defamation of character' was taken to another Medium and Security Custodial Prison located in the Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State, about a week ago. Justice Okon Abang has boldly refused every attempt by the Delta State Government to take over the case and has truncated efforts of the court to hear the case when the bail application filed by counsel for Aghogho came up for hearing.
The trial is expected to deal with the allegation of child trafficking levelled against the office of the Delta State Commissioner of Police, the conduct and actions of CP Ali Mohammed Ari in allegedly indulging in child trafficking in Delta State, along with several other police officers serving in Delta State, the office of the Chief Judge of Delta State, a retired Chief Judge, Justice Marshal Umukoro who is accused of falsifying several National Judicial Council reports.
Aghogho has openly in several press statements, accused the Police Public Relations Officer of the Delta State Police Command, DSP.
He added that the Delta State Commissioner for Justice and Director of Public Prosecution had similar facts but decided to shield the culprits and prosecute him on trumped-up charges instead.
