Court Frees Fani-Kayode Of Money Laundering Charges

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode

A Federal High Court in Lagos has dismissed the money laundering
charges levelled against a former Minister of Aviation, Femi
Fani-Kayode, by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

The trial judge, Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia, in a judgment on
Wednesday, freed Fani-Kayode after holding that "the prosecution case
is feeble" and had failed to prove the allegations against the accused
person beyond reasonable doubt.
