They had appeared before the court on 11 counts bordering on murder, indecent interference with a dead body, administration of extrajudicial oath and alteration to conceal evidence.
The all pleaded not guilty to charges when read to them. Counsels to the accused, Kunle Adegoke, SAN, and K. Eleja, SAN moved a motion for bail but the prosecutor, M. Omosun opposed the application.
The counsels told the court that they will be making a formal application for bail for six persons on Friday, stating that the seventh was added to the case less than 24 hours ago.
