Hon. Justice Saleh, Missing

By Gideon Njoku

Police sources in Abuja confirm that a Federal High Court Judge, Hon Justice Idrissa Saleh is missing.

He has, reportedly, been missing since Saturday, in Abuja, a family source disclosed.

The suspicion is that he may have been kidnapped. If this suspicion is true, it would rank as one of the most high profile kidnappings this year.

A police source told this magazine that an indisposed Justice Saleh got missing soon after he left an Abuja hospital.

His whereabouts is not known since then, as nobody has been able to reach him, and nobody has contacted his family over his whereabouts.

Since his  disappearance, fear has gripped his Judge-colleagues in Abuja, as they are not sure what exactly happened to him.

Bala Ciroma, Abuja Police Command Commissioner, is yet to make an official statement on Justice Saleh’s disappearance.
