His name is Muntari Idris, but his friends call him Barrister.
He lives at Ungwar-Maigiginya in Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
This suave 50 years old blind man has a reputation for bailing, harboring and aiding criminals, especially those involved in kidnapping, cattle rustling and banditry, but he presents himself as a businessman with interest in real estate.
When Muntari was arrested by men of the Nigerian Security And Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, he denied being involved in crime.
He blamed his boy Adamu Mohammed for roping him in by confessing that he had accompanied him several times to bail suspected criminals.
Mohammed confessed that most of the suspects bailed by Idris were those detained in connection with cattle rustling, kidnapping among others. He said he was introduced to the suspect by his late boss, noting that after realising what he does for a living, he counseled him but to no avail.
“I wish to duly state that I know my present boss, Barrister, as he is fondly called, to bail offenders, especially cattle rustlers and kidnappers particularly last year.
“He asked me to accompany him to State CID twice and many times to Rigasa Station and each time we did, I discovered that he would bail offenders who I realised were suspects of cattle rustling.”
