    Court Grants Bail to Ex-AGF Malami, Wife and Son in ₦8.7bn Money Laundering Case

    A briefing from Premium Times reports a Federal High Court granted bail to former Attorney General Abubakar Malami, alongside his wife and son, in a case involving alleged ₦8.7 billion money laundering.

    The court reportedly set bail conditions at ₦500 million each, with sureties and passport surrender requirements as proceedings continue.

    The defence has disputed the allegations, while prosecutors insist the evidence is strong.

    **Echotitbits take:** Bail isn’t a verdict, but the conditions signal the court sees the allegations as serious. Watch for the next hearing dates and whether prosecutors bring key witnesses and financial trail evidence promptly.
