Miyetti Allah leader Bodejo requests bail due to health concerns from detention, denied by prosecution.
Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore leader Bello Bodejo has applied for bail at a federal high court in Abuja, citing grave ill health resulting from his detention since January 23. Bodejo was arrested for allegedly unlawfully establishing an ethnic militia group, claiming it would aid security agencies in combating crime. The prosecution disputes his health claims and insists he has been effectively treated for high blood pressure. The court has adjourned the case to allow Bodejo's counsel to respond to the counter affidavit.
