The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime has collaborated with the European Union Delegation and the Nigerian Institute of Advanced Legal Studies to launch a User’s Guide to counter terrorism in Nigeria.

The statement explained that the materials assembled by UN and Nigerian experts for the User’s Guide are designed to serve as a quick and practical reference work for investigators, prosecutors, public defenders and judges working in this complex field. “Within the context of the EU-Nigeria-UNODC-CTED Partnership Project to Assist Nigeria to Strengthen Rule of Law-based Criminal Justice Responses to Terrorism and Violent Extremism, UNODC has been actively supporting the work of the Complex Case Group of the Federal Ministry of Justice to help prosecutors prepare cases against suspected members of Boko Haram currently held in custody that can be presented before the Federal High Court.

Speaking on the new innovation, the Head of Cooperation in the EU Delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS, Cécile Tassin-Pelzer, said: “The criminal justice system in Nigeria has made great strides in the past few years in bringing suspected members of terrorist organisations to justice, but there is always room for improvement in this most challenging of arenas.
