This rearrest is against a subsisting court order.
According sources, the operatives, had in a show of force, caused pandemonium in a court of law, chasing away the presiding judge, Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu and brutalized a TV-journalist.
DSS agents reportedly pulled their guns, causing also staff of the court to flee.
The DSS had kept Sowore in custody against court orders for his release before this rearrest.
Before he was released, the activist had spent 124 days in detention.

It is understood that he would be arraigned on fresh charges.
