Evans is asking the court to compel the police to release his trucks back to him.
Alleged billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, popularly known as Evans, has filed a lawsuit against the Nigeria Police Force in a Lagos division of the Federal High Court, petitioning for the release of 25 Mack trucks seized from him.
In a report by The Punch, the kidnap suspect's lawyer, Olukoya Ogungbeje, said the trucks were seized without a court order on June 15, 2017 in what he described as a violation of his client's right.
Ogungbeje urged the court to compel the police to release the confiscated trucks to Evans through him.
Some of the number plates of the trucks in question were listed in the suit as: BDG 78 XT, GGE 491 XU, FST 742 XT, AGL 219 XT, BDG 79 XT, AGL 222 XT, GGE 492 XU, AGL 220 XT and GGE 489 XU.
