By Vivian Okejeme, Abuja

The Department of State Services (DSS) yesterday, informed the Federal High Court, Abuja, that it has appealed the bail granted four of the 12 detained associates of Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, (aka Sunday Igboho).

At the resumed proceeding, counsel to the DSS, Idowu Awo, told the court that the agency was withdrawing an earlier application seeking to nullify the bail granted to the four.

He submitted that, since he had filed a notice of appeal against the bail granted to the four detainees, he would prefer to pursue the appeal at the appellate court.

Responding, counsel to the detainees, Mr Sunday Adebayo, did not oppose the prosecution application.
