In the charge paper sighted by NewsNet Nigeria signed by the Director, Public Prosecutions of the Federation, M. B.

Mariere and the nine other accused persons are standing trial on six-count charges which include: “acts of terrorism by attacking and causing the death of MUVI UNAGHA” and “participated and committed acts of terrorism by seriously intimidating Evwreni community by burning down over thirteen houses and destruction of properties worth millions of naira in Evwreni Kingdom in Ughelli North L.G.A Delta State“.
