Court orders Kayamata seller, jaruma’s rearrest over her absence

Court has ordered the rearrest of controversial Kayamata seller, Hauwa Muhammed, popularly known as Jaruma over her absence in court.

The aphrodisiac seller has seen her bail revoked by an upper area court sitting in Zuba, Abuja over her absence in court on Wednesday, February 23.

TopNaija recalls that Jaruma on January 28, was granted bail with a surety on Grade Level 12 within the FCT after being arrested for defamation of character, false news publication, and intimidation of former lawmaker, Ned Nwoko on the internet.

However, the presiding judge, Ismail Abdullahi Jubril in his ruling stated that the charges filed against Jaruma are bailable.

Kayamata seller, Jaruma, at the resumption of the case on Wednesday, was absent in the court, with her lawyer, Kayode Ajulo was also absent.

The lawyer when contacted by the court on why Jaruma based on his absence in court, said he had withdrawn from the case.

Giving Jaruma the benefit of doubt that she could still make it to court before the close of work.

However, the judge, after waiting for three hours issued a bench warrant and ordered her arrest and detention until the next adjourned date, March 17, 2022.

The judge said her absence in court without reason was an affront and a mockery of the court and judicial process and there was a need for the court to take immediate action.

Ismail Abdullahi also ordered her surety to be present in court on the next adjourned date.

Also, TopNaija reports that the prosecution lawyer of the case, Inegbinoise Edwin had earlier stated that Jaruma violated the term of her bail.

According to him, Jaruma has been making comments about the case on social media, contrary to the order given by the court to stay from anything that would be prejudicial to the case.
