2

Some suspects presented by the Nigeria Police for arraignment fainted before Obiora Egwuatu at the Federal High Court in Abuja.

The group consists of 75 individuals aged between 12 and 15, facing ten charges including terrorism, an attempt to overthrow the government, and alleged mutiny related to their involvement in nationwide protests.

They were reportedly arrested on August 3 and had been in detention until today.

The court session was set for arraignment and plea when several suspects fainted, prompting Justice Egwuatu to abruptly adjourn the proceedings.
