Mutiny: Soldiers Death Sentence Suspended

The Abuja Federal High Court has suspended the execution of the 12 Nigerian army soldiers who are on death row due to partaking in mutiny.

The order was given to the Nigerian Army to stop the planned execution of the soldiers condemned to death by Army General Court-Martial.

This recent order was passed on by Justice Gabriel Kolawole on Tuesday, October 28, 2014 after one Olisa Agbakoba filed a fundamental rights case against the Chief of Army Staff, the Commander, Army Headquarters Garrison, Mogadishu Cantonment, Asokoro Abuja, and the Attorney General of the Federation.
