Court Grants Dele Farotimi N30m Bail In Defamation Case
A magistrate court in Ado-Ekiti has granted N30 million bail to Dele Farotimi, the human rights activist.
Abayomi Adeosun, the magistrate, made the ruling on Farotimi’s bail application on Friday.
The bail conditions include two sureties, who must be responsible citizens in society, with the defendant required to leave his international passport with the court. Farotimi is also prohibited from granting media interviews during the pendency of the case.
The police had accused Farotimi of “criminally defaming” Afe Babalola, a senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN), in a book titled: ‘Nigeria and its Criminal Justice System’.
