A Magistrate court sitting in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state capital has struck out a suit prosecuting Moses Armstrong for allegedly abducting and defiling a 16-year-old teenager.

The judge, Moreen Udoka, struck out the suit after the prosecutor, A. Nyongessien, an assistant state counsel, reported that the suit has been filed at the State High Court

The teenage girl was reportedly abducted by Mr Armstrong and was living with the actor’s family in Akwa Ibom.

This is the second time the suit had been struck out.

The actor had been remanded for 21 days in a correctional facility to enable the prosecution to file a case at the high court after the lower court struck out the case based on jurisdiction.

Further hearing on the suit would be at the State High Court.
