Abuja — The Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday granted former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai bail of N100 million in the ongoing phone‑interception case.
Justice Joyce Abdulmalik ordered that El‑Rufai be admitted to bail on the sum of N100 million with one surety in a like amount. The judge said the surety must reside in either the Maitama or Asokoro districts of Abuja and must deposit the original Certificate of Occupancy (C-of-O) for a landed property at the court registry.
The court further directed that the surety be a federal civil servant of not less than Grade Level 17 and provide evidence of salary payments for at least three months. Those documents must be authenticated by a letter from the surety’s bank manager within the court’s jurisdiction.
