TheAttorney-General of Kano State, Ibrahim Muktar, says the state government didnot banish the deposed Emir, Muhammad Sanusi II.
Muktarsaid the state government was clear in its press statement on Monday thatSanusi was deposed but never made any reference to any banishment.
Muktarsaid security agents decided to whisk Sanusi away from Kano State due tointelligence reports they had.
Hesaid it was normal practice for deposed emirs to be moved away to maintainpeace in the state, adding that such an action was not in contravention of theconstitution which guarantees freedom of movement.
TheAttorney-General further stated that Sanusi was not removed because of thecorruption probe but strictly because of insubordination.
Sanusihas been in Nasarawa State since his removal on Monday and has been deniedaccess to visitors, according to his lawyers.
