Mr. Noah Kekere, and his alleged accomplices, were arrested by the Police, and latter remanded the Jos Correctional Center, following a remand order by the Magistrate Court.

On Tuesday, the lawyers of the accused led by Prof. A. S. Shaka, sought for the bail of Mr. Noah Kekere, even without case file, and prosecution before the court.

But the action of the chief magistrate, has triggered disquiet in the Nassarawa Gwong, Community of Jos North Local Government Area, over the bail granted to Noah Kekere.

The community leader, Alhaji Jamilu Baba, in an interview said it came to them as a surprised, that the chief magistrate, could allowed, "police prosecution complicit to grant the accused a bail out of correctional center."

He said: "How could it happened that the suspects are brought to the court, when the case was not listed in the cost list.

"How possible is it that no prosecution, from the police was at the court and the layers of the accused just presented a motion without even charges, and the judge granted the bail."

The community leader said they are pursuing for justice from all relevant authorities in the country.
 
But when contacted the Police spokesman, Plateau State Command, DSP Alfred Alabo, said the prosecution has been taken out of their hands.

"The cass has been transferred to the Plateau State Ministry of Justice, they are prosecuting the case. "Me I told you that they are the ones prosecuting the case," he responded.
