Justice Emeka Nwite of an Abuja Federal High Court on Tuesday refused to grant bail to suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari and four others.
The suspended Kyari alongside four others are answering questions to alleged hard drug trafficking offences preferred against them by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
It would be recalled that the NDLEA had, on March 7, arraigned Kyari (1st defendant) and six others on allegations bordering on a cocaine deal.
He was docked alongside four suspended police officers including ACP Sunday Ubia, ASP James, Inspector Simon Agirigba and Inspector John Nuhu as 2nd to 5th defendants respectively.
In his ruling on the bail application, Justice Nwite held that the applicants failed to present sufficient materials and evidence to warrant the granting of the fresh application.
The judge, therefore, confirmed his earlier ruling of March 28, 2022, wherein he ordered an accelerated hearing.
