It was a charged atmosphere today at Enugu North Magistrate Court, where the suspects; Chiamaka Ifezue and Emeka Ifezue alleged to have been responsible for the murder of one Ijeoma Nneke, a make-up artist based in Enugu are being tried.

The Chief Magistrate, His Worship, J.I Agu adjourned the matter to 21st April, 2021 because the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) haven’t filed their information on the matter to enable his court give the venue of the appropriate court that will handle the matter

The Prosecuting counsel, CSP Chike Nwachukwu said what happened in court today isn’t out of ordinary because it’s in “tandem with the rule of law and the adjournment of the case after the remand proceedings is to give a time for the court to be updated on what the Attorney General and the DPP has done as to filling of information at the appropriate court.”

The state through the Ministry of Justice is expected to take over the case once the DPP finish the vetting of the case file, he will file the case at the appropriate court; High Court

However, the court was filled to the brim and the security operatives ensured that nobody took pictures or records of the proceedings. This led so the confiscation of phones and gadgets of some Journalists that were in Court to report the proceedings.

Family members and friends of the deceased were seen in the court premises in their numbers in the court premises
