Nnamdi Kanu drags AGF and DSS to court over alleged denial of fundamental rights in custody
Nnamdi Kanu on Monday, December 13, slammed a fresh suit against the Attorney General of the Federation AGF, the Minister of Justice Abubakar Malami SAN and the Department of State Service DSS (DSS).
In the fresh suit, Kanu is seeking an order from the Federal High court in Abuja to compel the DSS to allow him access food, medical care and clothes of his choice.
The detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, accused the DSS of grossly violating his fundamental human rights.
Kanu, in the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS1585/2021, filed through one of his lawyers, Mr. Maxwell Chibuike Okpara, alleged that a doctor engaged by the security agency has extracted his blood over 21 times.
The IPOB leader bemoaned that despite an order of the court, he has neither been allowed to have a change of clothing nor to practice his religion in detention.
Kanu also applied for another order against DSS to allow him make arrangements for his food by himself at his own expense.
