Alleged Terrorism: DSS Arrests Malami After Release From Kuje Prison
Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) have arrested Former Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami.
His arrest, according to sources in the secret police, borders on fresh allegations of terrorism financing.
Security sources say Malami, who is standing trial before a Federal High Court on allegations of money laundering, was on Monday taken into custody by security operatives shortly after his release from the Kuje Correctional Centre, Abuja.
The source disclosed that DSS operatives picked him up immediately after he exited the facility.
Officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service confirmed that Malami was released after perfecting his bail conditions.
Efforts to obtain official comments from the DSS remained unsuccessful as of the time of filing this report.
