Five members of the Jama’atu Ansarul Muslimina fi-Biladis Sudan (Ansaru) have pleaded not guilty to amended charges of terrorism-related offences in connection with the abduction of 46 pupils and teachers in Oyo State, Nigeria. The Department of State Services (DSS) has accused the defendants, including Mahmud Muhammad and Abubakar Abbas, of ordering the abduction and causing the death of two victims, Michael Oyedokun and Deacon John Olaleye.
The defendants were arraigned before the Federal High Court in Abuja on a seven-count amended charge and have yet to enter a plea.
