Those standing trial for the killing are DCP. Danjuma Ibrahim, ASP Othman Abdulsalami (still at large), Corporals Nicholas Zacharia, Emmanuel Baba and Emmanuel Acheneje and Sadiq Salami.
They were alleged to have killed Ifeanyi Ozo, Chinedu Meniru, Isaac Ekene, Paulinus Ogbonna, Anthony Nwokike and Tina Arebun, while they were returning home from a night-out.
The deceased were between 21 and 25 years of age.
At the resumed hearing, Bello who adjourned the matter to July 6, said it was done at the instance of counsel to Acheneje, Malam Isa Ibrahim, in order for him to get all the records of proceedings to prepare for defence.
Ibrahim had asked for an adjournment to enable him get the record of proceedings and exhibits as he was just coming into the matter today.
He said he needed time to also meet with his client.
Facing Acheneje in the dock, Bello warned him against further stalling of the proceedings by his constant hiring and firing of counsel at will.
