Anambra CJ angry as prisoner dies days to freedom





An armed robbery suspect, Mr. Ndubuisi Beluolisa, who was to be freed by the Anambra State Chief Judge, Justice Peter Umeadi, during a jail delivery service in Awka, was reported to have died few days to his released.

Beluolisa was one of the four inmates under the 'very sick' category; their cases were to be treated compassionately by the CJ, who had been on jail delivery service in prisons for about a month.

Among those discharged by the CJ for having stayed too long without trial were Garba Michael from Plateau State, who was charged with illegal possession of firearms in 2008 and whose case file could no longer be traced, and Amaechi Ede, who was charged with burglary in 2010.
