The Department of State Services (DSS), has withdrawn a terrorism suit it filed against Tukur Mamu, the self-styled terrorists’ negotiator and aide to Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi.
The Service filed for a withdrawal of the suit it had filed at the Federal High Court in Abuja on September 12 to obtain a mandate of the court to detain Mamu for 60 more days after his arrest in Cairo.
The DSS said that the withdrawal was as a result of events overtaking the matter.
Following the withdrawal application, Justice Maha struck out the suit.
