Justice Nkeonye Maha admitted them to a five million naira bail each, following an application separately filed by their counsel not opposed to by lawyer to the police, Mathew Omosun.
Justice Maha had on December 15, 2021, refused to grant bail to an assistant superintendent of police, Mohammed Yahaya; Abdullahi Adamu; and Abdullahi Usman, on the grounds that no bail application was filed before the court on their behalf.
The judge had ordered that the three defendants be remanded in Kuje Correctional Centre till the next hearing fixed for trial commencement.
All fifteen defendants had earlier pleaded not guilty to eighteen charges, including forgery, criminal trespass, intimidation, extortion, among others, linked to their alleged invasion of Justice Odili’s home in Abuja on October 29, 2021.
