The Federal High Court in Abuja has admitted statements and video recordings made by six alleged coup plotters during military interrogations as evidence against them. The court dismissed their claims that the materials were obtained through torture, coercion, or inducement, stating that the Federal Government had proven the defendants voluntarily made the statements and participated in the recorded interrogations.
The defendants, including retired Major General Mohammed Gana and retired Navy Captain Erasmus Victor, face charges ranging from treason to terrorism, linked to money laundering and terrorism financing. The trial, initially challenged on admissibility grounds, will continue until December 7 and 10.
