Member of the Hamza Al-Mustapha family have threatened to report Justice Mojisola Dada to the National Judicial Council (NJC) for, according to them, refusing them access to the judgment that condemned the ex-Chief Security Officer to the late Sani Abacha to death.

According to a statement in Kano yesterday, Al-Mustapha’s family decried the alleged grand plot to frustrate its intention to appeal against the judgment.

The statement said: “The attention of the Al-Mustapha family has been drawn to the fact that there is a deliberate desire to frustrate the quest by Major Hamza Al-Mustapaha to seek justice at the Appeal Court.

“Shortly after the judgment by a Lagos High court that handed down the capital punishment to Al-Mustapha, we directed our team of lawyers to commence the process of filing an appeal against the judgment which we felt was unjust and lacking in merit.

“As a result, Mr. Olalekan Ojo who held brief for Al-Mustapha at the High Court, sought for a copy of the written judgment from Justice Dada who delivered the questionable judgment.

“To our dismay, a copy of the judgment is yet to be made available one month after it was delivered under the flimsy excuse that it is yet to be typed.”

The family cited other cases involving Al-Mustapha where the written judgment was given to the family without delay, wondering why “in this particular case, the court does not want to release the copy of the judgment.”

“An excuse like this is coming to us as a surprise as we are aware that in similar cases involving Major Al-Mustapha in Lagos High Courts, we sought for a copy of the written judgment in respect of the cases involved and it was delivered to us on the same day and in an expeditious manner.
