Justice Fatun Riman of a Federal High Court, Kano, on June 9, 2016, granted the application of the EFCC, to try a former Skye Bank staff, Yagana Bukar, in absentia.
Bukar was arraigned by the EFCC on a 10-count charge bordering on money laundering.
The accused was first brought before the court in October 2013 and was granted bail by the trial judge.
However, the former Skye Bank employee jumped bail shortly after the commencement of trial and has not been found since then.
