Speed Darlington’s lawyer, Stan Alieke advises Nigerians against committing crimes ahead of Christmas and New Year celebrations to avoid spending the holidays in detention.
He mentioned that the Nigerian courts and law offices would be closing for the year and whatever warrants a citizen to be arrested or detained means such a person would spend the festive period in detention.
Nonetheless, it is a common belief that the best time to punish an offender is during the holiday season, therefore an arrest is made a week before Christmas.
He wrote,
“Try as much as possible to avoid anything that will warrant you being arrested or detained for any crime this period; courts will be shutting down for the year as from next week & even law offices will be closing down for the year. Anything that warrants you to be arrested & detained now, you will spend the Xmas/ New Year in detention. On the other hand, they say this period is always the best time to deal with
anybody; arrest him/her by next week & he/she will surely spend Xmas/ New Year in detention.”
