Stop Parading Suspects – Femi Falana

A human rights lawyer, Mr Femi Falana (SAN), has condemned the parade of suspects by the police and urged them to put an end to it.

He said this during a keynote address at the inauguration of the hearing of the South-West Zone Presidential Panel on the Special Anti-Robbery Squad Reform.

Falana said the act of parading criminal suspects by the police negated the principle of fair hearing and was a breach of the suspects’ fundamental human rights.
