Bombs Rock Three Rivers Courts, JUSUN Suspends Strike

Barely 48 hours after the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria declared
the suspension of the eight-month-old strike in Rivers State, unknown
persons have bombed three separate High Courts in Degema, Isiokpo and
Port Harcourt areas of the state.

The incidents were coordinated and happened almost simultaneously in
the wee hours of Monday, just as the State Police Command confirmed
that minimal damages were recorded and no life was lost.

It was gathered that one of the courts in Degema was completely razed
by unidentified arsonists with many documents burnt beyond
recognition.

Two courts in the state were attacked before the judiciary workers
embarked on strike on June 10, 2014.
