Justice Ayokunle Faji of the Lagos Division of the Federal High Court on Monday fixed June 28 for the hearing of pending applications against Innoson Nig. Ltd, over alleged falsification of shipping document.
Innoson Nig. Ltd, Innocent Chukwuma, Charles Chukwu, Maximian Chukwura, Mitsui Osk Lines ‘C’ and Anajekwu Sunny are facing a four-count charge bordering on forgery and conspiracy before the judge.
Mr Chukwuma had some time last year requested that the presiding judge Saliu Seidu, recuse himself from the matter.
However when the case was reopened on Monday, the new trial judge, Mr. Faji, who replaced Mr. Saidu, after hearing the defendants said he would need to go through all the processes with respect to the matter.
He thereafter fixed June 28 for the hearing of pending supplications.
