The Katsina state government has disclosed plans to establish special e-court to handle corruption cases.
This was made known by the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Musa Danladi, when he received delegates from the state Anti-Corruption Commission led by its chairman, Rtd. Justice Lawal Garba.
According to report, Danladi said, in partnership with the commission, the special e-court will be equipped with electronic evidence presentation system, while stressing that the court would not only go for civil servants alone but also corrupt contractors.
“We are going electronic because we are setting up an electronic evidence presentation system, from arrest, interrogation and collection of evidence.
“In order to stem the tide of corruption in Katsina State, a special court will be designated for the trial of suspected offenders.
“The court will not hear any other matter other than corruption cases and it will be equipped with an electronic evidence presentation system.
“We are going into a serious collaboration with you (Anti Corruption Commission) since it is a new baby.
“You need a lot of enlightenment, you must follow due the process and do not look at anybody but Katsina State.
“I want you to base all your operations on ICT.
“There are even some businessmen ready to support government.
“Do not go after civil servants alone, get contractors who are found wanting. Don’t allow anybody to go Scot-free.
“You have my full support and we are going to establish special magistrate courts in the three senatorial districts of the state,” he said.
