FEDERAL HIGH COURT STRIKES OUT FCCPC’S CRIMINAL CASE AGAINST QATAR AIRWAYS CEO

Case halted as FCCPC fails to properly serve court documents to defendants.

The Federal High Court in Abuja dismissed the criminal charges filed by the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) against Qatar Airways CEO Temi Birdzell and three top officials. The case was struck out by Justice James Omotosho due to FCCPC’s inability to serve all defendants with court processes. The charges related to alleged failure to comply with lawful summons, withholding documents, and contravening consumer rights under the FCCPC Act, 2018. The commission will need to refile after proper service.
