The Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, (AGF), has said he did not exonerate Abba Kyari, suspended deputy commissioner of police (DCP), on the alleged case of money laundering as against the news that has been trending.

The report of the investigations against Kyari by the probe panel was sent by Usman Baba, inspector-general of police to Malami for legal advice.

In his advice, Malami had said there was a prima facie case of money laundering and that further investigations should be conducted into the matter.

However, in a twist of fate, Malami’s recent advice which was dated February 4, says there is not sufficient evidence that Kyari was involved in money laundering.

The recent advice had fuelled speculations that Malami was trying to exonerate Kyari.

Clarifying himself in a statement on Sunday, Malami, through his spokesperson, Umar Gwandu, said the office of the AGF requested a further probe in relation to some aspects of the investigation.

He said that the office of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice’s stance is that no conclusion has been reached in the direction of the absence of evidence relating to the first report.

He said that the issues were raised for further investigation with a view to cover the field in the investigation in order to arrive at an informed decision.
