ナイジェリア裁判所は,元知事を起訴できるかどうかを,N27億の詐欺事件で定める. Nigerian court to decide if it can prosecute former governor over N27 billion fraud case.

ナイジェリアの裁判所は,元タラバ州知事ダリウス・イシャク氏及び元国務大臣のベラオ・イェロ氏がN27億の不正行為で起訴された事件について,その判決を保管している. A Nigerian court has reserved its ruling in a case where former Taraba State Governor Darius Ishaku and a former state official, Bello Yero, are accused of fraud involving N27 billion. 経済・金融犯罪委員会(EFCC)は請求をしたが,被告の弁護人は,裁判所は国の財政上の権限を欠いていると主張する. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) filed the charges, but the defendants' lawyers argue the court lacks jurisdiction over state finances. 裁判官は,EFCCが1月21日に判決を期待し,そのような事件を起訴できるかどうかを決定する. The judge will decide if the EFCC can prosecute such cases, with a ruling expected on January 21.
