The Plaintiff commenced an action seeking to determine whether by virtue of a previous judgment delivered in another suit, to which the Plaintiff was also a party, investigations by the relevant agencies including the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission into allegations of fraud and money laundering with respect to payment of fuel subsidy had been concluded; whether by the same judgment, the relevant agencies can re-open and further investigate on the same subject matter and whether by the same judgement, where it was held that the Plaintiff, having not been indicted in the previous investigations, the Defendant is restrained from conducting new or further investigations on the same subject matter. The declarative and injunctive reliefs sought by the Plaintiff were granted by the Court based on evidence adduced and the doctrine of Estoppel.
