A State High Court sitting in Osun State, has declined bail applications brought before it by Dr Rahman Adedoyin and six of his hotel workers facing trial over the murder of Timothy Adegoke, a postgraduate student of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
The presiding judge, Chief Justice Adepele Ojo, while delivering a ruling on the applications, said the defendant’s medical conditions are not too serious not to be attended to by the correction service.
She added that the defendants have failed to prove that the correction service did not have adequate facilities to take care of their medical issues.
According to her, the nature of the offences preferred against the defendants demands that the court be cautious in granting such bail applications.
