A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja on Thursday granted permission to former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, who has since November 4, 2015 been under house arrest , permission to be absent from court pending the determination of interlocutory applications filed by his lawyers and the Government of the Federation.
Dasuki had filed an interlocutory application asking the court for an order directing operatives of the Department of State Service to end their siege on his home in Abuja.
On its part, the Federal Government on November 20 filed an interlocutory application asking for the revocation of the bail granted Dasuki on September 1, 2015 by Justice Adeniyi Ademola on the grounds that the ex-NSA was under investigation for embezzlement of $2bn meant for the procurement of arms from 2007 to date.
