    #Repost credit: @tiersnigeria An update on the # #Repost credit: @tiersnigeria An update on the #AcquitThe57 case ⁣ ⁣ Today, the case of the 57 men who were arrested two years ago on false charges was struck out. ⁣ ⁣ While it is good news that the men no longer have to show up in court repeatedly to defend this charge, we are disappointed that the case has been struck out instead of being dismissed.⁣ ⁣ A dismissal would mean that the individuals are free of all charges and the case can never be brought up again in any court of law. However, a strike out means that they are free to go away now, but the police are free to arrest them again anytime in the future on these same charges. ⁣ ⁣ Since it was found that the Prosecution lacks evidence for the crimes alleged, the proper order should have been a dismissal. As it stands now, we see that the justice system has again failed to mete out justice. ⁣ ⁣ Thank you to everyone who joined us to demand justice. We do not take your support for granted, and we hope that you will continue to use your voice to speak up against injustice. Thank you!
    Police arrest and incarceration are common in Nige Police arrest and incarceration are common in Nigeria for probable or non-probable cause, reasonable or non-reasonable suspicion, with or without investigation. However, as a citizen, it behooves you to know your rights and guard them jealously against infringements. Note that one does not have the right to resist arrest. The arrestee may not have that right even if the arrest is illegal. There are constitutional safeguards to guard against violation of your fundamental rights when you are arrested. These are contained in sections 34-36 of the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended. They are: #humanrights #equality #humanity #freedom #justice #feminism #feminist #peace #womensrights #lgbtq #socialjustice #prolife #equalrights #law #legal #justice #wherinitiative
