The federal government had, on Wednesday, commenced the prosecution of six coup plotters at the Federal High Court, Abuja. They pleaded not guilty to the charges against them. The Court ordered that the six persons accused of plotting to overthrow the Federal Government be put on remand at the detention facility of the Department of the State Service DSS.
