The legal team to the family of late Timothy Adegoke has disclosed plans to visit the Inspector General of Police, Usman Alkali, or the Commissioner of Police in charge of the prosecution to press the demand for the transfer of the case back to Osun State.

Adekilekun, who insisted that the case should be transferred back to Osun, said the defence team may get the case struck out for lack of jurisdiction if tried outside the area where the alleged offences were committed.

He said, “In criminal prosecution, you don’t give a chance, the court must also have the prerequisite jurisdiction to enable it to undertake the judicial function. In this case, what is probable is that this charge be quashed because of lack of jurisdiction and if that is done that would give the defence counsel an opportunity of getting their clients off the hook.
