The Department of States Security Service has rearrested Omoyele Sowore and Olawale Bakare on Friday.
Odunews.com had earlier reported that the officials of the DSS stormed the court’s premises and attempted to whisk away the activists but were prevented.
Lawyer to the activists, Femi Falana (SAN), confirmed the development to SaharaReporters, saying that they had not been furnished with the new charges the DSS had brought against Sowore and Bakare.
Below is a video showing how he was taken away by the DSS.
