In the suit Sanusi filed, he is seeking a restraining order against DSS operatives and the Police to prevent them from detaining, arresting, and harassing him, Vanguard reports.
The former CBN governor filed the suit as a result of an incident that occurred on February 20th, in which the DSS seized his passport upon arrival at Murtala Muhammed International Airport.
