The Federal High Court, Abuja on Wednesday fixed June 16 for ruling on admissibility of the alleged confessional statement of Obi Nwabueze in the Abuja 2010 Independence day bomb blast.
Justice Gabriel Kolawole adjourned ruling in the case after parties concluded their trial-within-trial to ascertain the veracity of the statement.
Nwabueze, the second defendant in the case, had alleged that the statement he made in the custody of the Department of State Services was obtained under duress.
He was arraigned by the DSS alongside Charles Okah on charges bordering on conspiracy and terrorism.
They both pleaded not guilty to the charges.
