Abducted Judge of the Benin Division of the Appeal Court, Justice Chioma Nwosu-Iheme has regained her freedom.

Nwosu-Iheme regained her freedom about two weeks after she was kidnapped from the Edo State Capital.

The Commissioner of Police, Edo Command, Danmallam Mohammed, confirmed that the judge was rescued from kidnappers and has been reunited with her family.

Her abduction had led to public outcry from various quarters with the Nigerian Bar Association, Benin Branch, embarking on a three-day boycott of all courts last week. (Channels TV)
