Justice Elvis Ngene, in his judgement on the matter in Abakaliki on Friday, restrained the police from arresting Odoh.
According to Ngene, “I hereby direct the second and third respondents to thoroughly investigate the allegation levelled against the first respondent and others.
Ebonyi Police had declared the APGA governorship candidate wanted over a petition brought against him by some members of his family.
Counsel to Odoh, C. K. Okorie (SAN), challenged the jurisdiction of the court to hear the application.
Counsel to the bereaved family, Chinedu Igboke, told journalists that he would appeal the ruling on the matter.
The matter was brought before the High Court by the son of the traditional ruler, Collins Igboke, against the Ebonyi APGA governorship candidate, Commissioner of Police, and the Inspector General of Police.
