$460,000 Forfeiture: Tinubu Qualified To Contest, It Was A Civil Matter – PEPT
On the allegations made by the LP that President Tinubu was not qualified to contest in view of the $460k fine in relation to narcotics charges in the US, the court held that trial and conviction by a court is the only way to prove guilt.
The case was a civil forfeiture case as it is a unique remedy which rests on the property being the target and not the person.
The case was in the civil docket of the United state north district court Illinois.
