A Federal High Court in Lagos has asked the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, to suspend all actions on the move to extradite Senator-elect, Mr. Buruji Kashamu, to the United States to face trial on alleged drug trafficking offences.
The judge while adjourning hearing in all pending applications on the subject matter till June 19, 2015, said yesterday that status quo must be maintained till all the applications were decided one way or the other.
The NDLEA is however challenging the jurisdiction of the court to entertain the matter. They are also seeking the reversal of the court order of May 26 which directed it to withdraw more than 50 of his operatives that had laid siege to Kashamu's house.
