State Security Court sets 10-day deadline for 94 suspects to turn themselves in
The State Security Court (SSC) Sunday issued a 10-day deadline for 94 suspected drug dealers and pushers to turn themselves in or will be tried in absentia.
The failure to appear before the court before the lapse of the deadline, which starts today, will render the suspects fugitives and will therefore be tried in absentia, according to an SSC statement.
After the expiry of the deadline, the assets of the 94 suspects, who are wanted in 85 cases, will be placed under government custody and they will not be allowed to dispose of as long as they remain on the run.
Furthermore, the fugitives will not be entitled to file lawsuits and that every act they take or a commitment they make shall be considered null and void, according to the court.
The 94 suspects face multiple charges, including distribution, promotion and possession of narcotic substances with the intent to trade and sell.
