el-zakzaky medical bail adjourned by kaduna high court

Islamic Movement in Nigeria, IMN, has rejected the tough bail conditions attached to the release of its leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, by the Kaduna State Government.

In a statement by the organisation’s spokesperson, Abdullahi Musa, shortly after a brief protest by members in Abuja on Thursday, the IMN said that the conditions attached to the bail application was a ploy by Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, to silence El-Zakzaky in detention.

Musa said, “sequel to the press statement released by Kaduna State Government dated August 7 and signed by Samuel Aruwan stating terms and conditions for the medical leave of Sheikh Zakzaky and his wife, we wish to inform the public that the conditions are not more than a desperate move by el-Rufai to assassinate the Sheikh in detention, and we hereby turn down the conditions.”Elzakzaky's medical bail case has been adjourned by Kaduna high Court
