A High court in Port Harcourt
has granted bail to four out of the 12 persons facing trail in the murder case
of the four Uniport students. The four suspects are: Alhaji Welewa, Okoghiroh
Endurance, Ozioma Abajuo and Chigozie Evans Samuel. Justice Letn Nyordee granted
them bail on grounds that their offence is bailable and not a capital offence.
Meanwhile, hearing has commenced in full

State Criminal Investigations Department.
They were granted bail at the sum of two million naira with two sureties, with certified
landed property in the city. They must equally show means of livelihood and
evidence of payment of tax for two years. Our Correspondent
