Gavel, furthering its access to justice initiative, visited the Suleja Correctional centre to debrief awaiting trial persons for possible pro bono legal representation.
The visit was initially scheduled for the 15th of September 2021 but our team was not granted entrance into the facility due to the visit of the CG of corrections.
Gavel’s team in Abuja returned to the Custodial Center in Niger State on the 22nd of September 27, 2021, to offer Pro-Bono legal services to indigent inmates awaiting trial.
A total of 16 inmates were interviewed and their cases will be processed and attended to.
