Les autorit\u00e9s nig\u00e9rianes ont abandonn\u00e9 les charges de financement du terrorisme qui pesaient contre l’ancien ministre de la Justice, Abubakar Malami, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 son avocat mercredi.<\/p>\n
Malami avait \u00e9t\u00e9 inculp\u00e9 plus t\u00f4t cette ann\u00e9e de complicit\u00e9 \u00ab\u00a0sciemment\u00a0\u00bb de \u00ab\u00a0financement du terrorisme\u00a0\u00bb pour avoir refus\u00e9 de poursuivre les financiers du terrorisme dont les dossiers avaient \u00e9t\u00e9 transmis \u00e0 son bureau.<\/p>\n
Son avocat, Adedayo Adedeji, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 mercredi aux journalistes devant le tribunal\u00a0: \u00ab\u00a0Nous avons re\u00e7u une version modifi\u00e9e des charges\u2026 expurg\u00e9e de la partie relative au financement du terrorisme et limit\u00e9e \u00e0 la simple possession d’armes \u00e0 feu.\u00bb<\/p>\n
Malami et son fils, Abdulaziz Malami, \u00e9taient \u00e9galement accus\u00e9s de vouloir commettre un acte de terrorisme pour avoir d\u00e9tenu un pistolet et des munitions sans permis \u00e0 leur domicile.<\/p>\n
Ils ont tous deux plaid\u00e9 non coupable des accusations de possession ill\u00e9gale d’armes \u00e0 feu, a-t-il pr\u00e9cis\u00e9.<\/p>\n
Les m\u00e9dias nig\u00e9rians ont \u00e9galement rapport\u00e9 qu’un avocat des services de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 de l’\u00c9tat (DSS), la police secr\u00e8te nig\u00e9riane, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 devant un tribunal d’Abuja que les accusations de terrorisme avaient \u00e9t\u00e9 abandonn\u00e9es, mais que les charges li\u00e9es aux armes \u00e0 feu \u00e9taient maintenues.<\/p>\n
Malami, qui a occup\u00e9 les fonctions de procureur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral et de ministre de la Justice de novembre 2015 \u00e0 mai 2023, est \u00e9galement accus\u00e9 de d\u00e9lits financiers.<\/p>\n
En janvier, la Commission des crimes \u00e9conomiques et financiers (EFCC), l’agence anticorruption du pays, l’a accus\u00e9, ainsi que son \u00e9pouse et son fils, d’avoir blanchi 8,7 milliards de nairas (environ 6,5 millions de dollars).<\/p>\n
Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 lib\u00e9r\u00e9 sous caution en f\u00e9vrier, les accusations de terrorisme ayant \u00e9t\u00e9 depuis modifi\u00e9es.<\/p>\n
Malami figure parmi les hauts responsables de l’administration de l’ancien pr\u00e9sident Muhammadu Buhari \u2013 salu\u00e9 pour sa lutte contre la corruption \u2013 poursuivis pour fraude.<\/p>\n
L’ancien gouverneur de la banque centrale, Godwin Emefiele, et l’ancien ministre du Travail, Chris Ngige, sont \u00e9galement poursuivis pour des faits similaires.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
