In the fresh 24-count charges filed against Kyari by the Director of Prosecution and Legal Services, J. Sunday, dated August 30, 2022, the Attorney-General of the Federation stated that the suspended DCP allegedly disguised his ownership of some of the properties.

The case filed at the Federal High Court, Abuja, with charge number: FHC/ABJ/CR/408/22 had as co-defendants, Mohammed Kyari and Ali Kyari, who are believed to be the beleaguered policeman’s siblings.

There is more trouble for embattled former commander, Intelligence Response Team (IRT), Abba Kyari, a Deputy Commissioner of Police, as the Federal Government has uncovered 14 assets including shopping malls, residential estate, polo playground, lands and farmland.

Over N207m and Є17,598 were also discovered in his various accounts in GTB, UBA and Sterling Bank.

Kyari admitted he owns these properties in different locations in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja and Maiduguri, Borno State.

Also, the Federal Government filed separate 24-count charges against Kyari’s former deputy, Sunday Ubua, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, who is under suspension.
