The Kaduna State Police Command has beefed up security ahead of today’s ruling of the application filed by the embattled leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, IMN Ibraheem El-Zakzaky.
The Command’s Spokesman Yakubu Sabo assured the people of the state that adequate security had been put in place for hitch-free court appearance. He also advised the public to remain calm and not to be apprehensive where they observe unusual number of security personnel in town
Justice Darius Khobo of Kaduna State High Court is expected to rule on the application filed by El-Zakzaky seeking permission to travel abroad for medical treatment.
The hearing comes barely three days after a Federal High Court in Abuja granted the Federal Government the power to proscribe the Shi’ites’ organisation
The Shi’ites’ protests in Abuja have caused the death of a police officer and a National Youth Scheme Corps member, Precious Owolabi.
