An Osun State High Court has remanded the Chairman of Hilton Hotel, Rahman Adedoyin and six other suspects involved in Timothy Adegoke’s murder trial Monday.
This is coming as the presiding Chief Justice, Justice Adepele Ojo refused the bail application of the suspects.
The Nation reports that on delivering the ruling on Monday morning, the Osun State Chief Justice, Justice Adepele Ojo declined to grant the application on health grounds brought by the counsel to the defendant, Kunle Adegoke.

Ojo based her refusal on the fact that the correctional centre has the facilities to cater for the health needs of the defendants since his health condition is not too serious.
Timothy Adegoke was a postgraduate student of the Obafemi Awolowo University, who died in the Hilton Hotel, Ile-Ife, in November 2021.
