The Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) Wednesday discharged and acquitted Senate President, Bukola Saraki on charges of false assets declaration brought against him.

The tribunal in a unanimous ruling by its two members upheld the no-case submission made by Saraki.

The tribunal held that the prosecution was unable to discharge the burden of proof placed on it under the law.

It held that the evidence led by the prosecution have been sufficiently discredited by the defence during cross-examination.
