After 13 years, court dismisses malicious prosecution case against NCC
After 13 years of litigation, the FCT High Court dismissed a case of alleged malicious prosecution against the Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC).
A movie producer filed the case, Charles Ayiga, who alleged that NCC maliciously prosecuted him for offences he did not commit.
Specifically, he said NCC maliciously prosecuted him for a purported obstruction of its officer while carrying out his official duties and unlawful possession of Federal Government documents.
