The former chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Taskforce Team (PRTT), Abdulrasheed Maina has employed some family melodramatic tactics at his ongoing tial at the Federal High Court in Abuja, In a bid to dodge his ongoing trial on money laundering and other financial crimes.
Maina slumped shortly after the court resumed proceedings in the 12-count charge the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, preferred against him and his firm, Common Input Property and Investment Limited.
Maina had on Wednesday after the EFCC closed its case with nine witnesses, secured permission of the court to enter a no-case-submission to the charges against him.
However, when the case was called on Thursday, Maina’s lawyer, Mr. Anayo Adibe, told the court that his client would not be able to proceed with his application.
Abide said he was unable to prepare the no-case-submission owing to the fact that he was not availed with records of proceedings of the court in the matter.
