The failure of the prosecution to serve defendants in a three-count charge of alleged terrorism, attempted murder and malicious damage, against Francis Okolie and four others of Ogwashi-Uku, in Aniocha South Local Government Area of Delta State, on Tuesday, stalled the commencement of trial of the case at the Federal High Court, Asaba.

The Prosecution Counsel, Orji Kalu Esq, had told the , court that the charge against the defendants had been re-amended to include the 5th defendant and Iyase of Ogwashi-Uku, Chief Michael Nwaukoni,.

He added that prosecution had yet to serve the defendants the re-amended charge.

Counsel to the 5th defendant, Chioma Ukwuanyi Esq, observed that the previous amended charge was not accompanied by a proof of evidence, insisting that being a criminal case, a proof of evidence must accompany the re-amended charge before the case could proceed, as required by law.
