Malami said this on Wednesday at a two-day workshop on ACJA 2015 for Police Prosecutors In North Central Zone, organised by the federal ministry of Justice in Abuja.

“The essential elements of the ACJA 2015 focused on the abolition of stay of proceedings; effective case management by trial courts; witness protection, and sentencing guidelines among others.
“The act has added some new innovations such as the establishment of a sex offender registry in the federal capital territory.
“Upon the conviction of a sex offender, the offender’s particulars shall be entered into the sex offenders register”.
Malami noted that other innovations in the bill just passed by the senate include: abolition of trial within trial which delayed criminal proceedings, filing of witness deposition to promote speedy trial and they would help enhance criminal justice in Nigeria.
