The Federal High Court, Abuja, has asked former Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) spokesman, Mr Olisah Metuh, to be present at his trial on Feb. 5th or face jail.
Justice Okon Abang gave the order on Thursday, when he delivered ruling in an application filed by Metuh, seeking an adjournment to his trial on health grounds. The judge said that the letter which Metuh wanted the court to rely on to grant the adjournment was not a proper document before the court.
The said letter was fraudulently smuggled into the records of the court by a person unknown to the court with the intent to stall proceedings. The judge said that there was a laid down procedure for filing a medical report in court. He said it was not the place of a medical practitioner to write a lengthy letter with several medical terms that were meaningless to the court.
The judge, however, said that if Metuh failed to appear in court on the next adjourned date, he would revoke the bail. The outcome of his response when he appears in court will determine whether or not to put him in prison. He adjourned the matter until Feb. 5 and 6 for continuation of trial.
