Evans also asked the court to order the police authorities to immediately arraign him before a law court, or release him from custody.

Today (Tuesday) vacation judge, Justice Chuka Obiozor of the Federal High Court, Lagos adjourned the matter after holding that there was no more urgency for the suit to be heard during the vacation.
