In view of all that has been said in this Judgment as inspired by the
evidence as contained in the averments and annextures annexed there
under by both parties in the affidavit and counter affidavit evidence, it is
the humble view of this court that the Applicant was not arrested in lieu of
another suspect nor without any justification, but because one Dr. Hassan
A. Bodinga lodged a complaint against him in connection with the offence
of Criminal Breach of Trust. I so hold.
The Applicant having failed to present enough material evidence showing
how his constitution right to personal liberty was infringed without any
legal justification, the application has no merit and consequently the
Applicant is not entitled to the reliefs sought in this application. I therefore
resolve the sole issue against the Applicant in favour of the Respondents.
Accordingly, this suit is hereby dismissed for lack of merit. I make no
order as to cost.
