The Department of State Services (DSS) has asked a Federal High Court to grant anonymity to two witnesses set to testify in the trial of former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai.
El-Rufai was arraigned on Thursday on a five-count amended charge over alleged unauthorised access to a telephone conversation involving National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.
After the plea, DSS counsel Oluwole Aladeloye applied for an order permitting the witnesses to testify under pseudonyms and outside public view.
