Yunusa Dahiru, aka “Yellow”, who allegedly abducted, forced into
marriage and abducted Miss Ese Oruru and is standing trial on a five count
charge of criminal abduction, illicit sex, sexual exploitation and unlawful
carnal knowledge of a minor, weekend, finally left the custody of the Okaka
prison in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State after spending over four months.
It was gathered that Yunusa was immediately taken to Kano, where he hails from, in company with a team of his defence lawyers who usually fly into the state during court sittings.
Lawyer to the accused, Mr Kayode Olaosebekan, who confirmed
the release of Yunusa, said: "His people have taken him away."
It was learnt
that contrary to insinuations that no Bayelsa indigene would be willing to stand
surety for the accused because of the ethnic and religious sentiments the case
seemed to have elicited, the person who eventually fulfilled the court
condition was from the state.
