The Police Service Commission (PSC) has set up an in-house panel to look into Abba Kyari’s indictment.
Glamtush reports that the Police Service Commission has set up an in-house panel to study in detail available documents related to the suspended former Head of the Intelligence Response Team, Abba Kyari, a Deputy Commissioner of Police.
This online platform understands that the panel is expected to examine the facts of the allegations as contained in the Federal Bureau of Investigation indictment and also look at the extant rules “as a means of keeping abreast of the matter” pending the submission of the report by the Special Investigation Panel earlier set up by the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba.
Recall that Kyari had been indicted by the FBI in a $1.1 million Internet scam allegedly carried out by an Instagram influencer, Abbas Ramon, commonly known as Hushpuppi and four others.
The commission had earlier suspended Ky ari with effect from July 31 pending the outcome of the police investigation.
The PSC spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, in a statement in Abuja on Thursday, titled, ‘PSC waits for Abba Kyari report, sets up in-house panel,’ explained that the panel is headed by the Director, Department of Police Discipline in the Commission, Tijani Mohammed, a lawyer.
It explained that the panel was “to gather and document relevant information on DCP Abba Kyari in view of his disciplinary matter and to analyze the information gathered and make appropriate recommendation/s to the commission.”
The panel, which has been inaugurated by the Permanent Secretary/ Secretary to the Commission, Alhaji Abubakar Ismaila, has started work while the commission awaits the report of the DIG Joseph Egbunike investigative panel on the matter.
“The commission had also directed the Inspector-General of Police to furnish it with information on further development on the matter for necessary further action.”
