Sahara Reporters’ publisher and convener of RevolutionNow, Omoyele Sowore and Olawale Bakare have been rearrested by the Department of State Security (DSS) just hours after being released from their custody.
Thelagostimes gathered that DSS officers stormed the Abuja Division of the court on Friday morning to effect the arrest of Sowore and his co-defendant, Olawale Bakare, after a stand-off that lasted almost two hours at the Federal High Court in Abuja on Friday.
Sowore and Bakare were eventually taken to the DSS facility in their lawyer, Femi Falana’s car driven by a DSS personnel and escorted by several other DSS trucks.
Recall that Sowore was released after Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu, of the Federal High Court, Abuja, the judge handling his treasonable felony trial, said that her November 6 order must be complied with.
