After Calling Two Witnesses DSS Closes Wiretapping Case against El-Rufai

The Department of State Services (DSS) has officially closed its wiretapping case against former governor Ahmed El-Rufai after presenting two witnesses in court. Despite the DSS's efforts, the court denied any bail variation, meaning El-Rufai could remain in custody until at least September. This case has significant implications for political tensions in the region, as it highlights ongoing struggles between the government and former officials. The closure of the case, while not resolving all legal issues, marks a step in the judicial process, though El-Rufai's continued detention remains a contentious issue.
