A Muslim group, Jammaatul Tajjadid Islamy (JTI), has taken legal actions against the Kano State Government and the State Commissioner of Police, seeking the immediate prosecution of the controversial Sheik Abduljabar Nasiru Kabara.
Sheik Kabara is accused of an alleged blasphemy against the Prophet Mohammed.
According to the application order filed by the Islamic sect, the sect wants the court to slam the order of the Mandamus on Kano Attorney General, Barrister M. A Lawan, and the State Police Commissioner, Samaila Dikko, to immediately arrest and prosecute Sheik Abduljabbar Nasiru Kabara.
The Islamic sect argued that the enormity of the allegations against Sheik Kabara is beyond Kano State Government to decide his fate alone.
