El zakzaky wife arraigned in kaduna court amid tight security #
It appears that there is a news article about the arraignment of Zeenatu Zakiyahu, the wife of Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, the leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN), in a Kaduna court.
Here's a summary of the article:
Zeenatu Zakiyahu, the wife of Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, was arraigned in a Kaduna court on Monday amid tight security. She was charged with culpable homicide and other offenses in connection with the 2015 Zaria massacre, in which over 300 members of the IMN were killed by the Nigerian military.
Zeenatu, who was arrested in 2019, was brought to the court in a police van and was accompanied by heavily armed security personnel. She was arraigned before Justice Gideon Kurada of the Kaduna State High Court, who ordered that she be remanded in prison custody pending the outcome of the trial.
The prosecution alleged that Zeenatu was involved in the killing of a police officer and the destruction of public property during the 2015 Zaria massacre. She pleaded not guilty to the charges and was granted bail in the sum of N10 million.
The arraignment of Zeenatu comes amid growing concerns about the treatment of IMN members by the Nigerian government. The group has been banned and its members have been subjected to brutal crackdowns by the security forces.
It's worth noting that the IMN has been a vocal critic of the Nigerian government and has been involved in several protests and demonstrations over the years. The group's leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, has been in detention since 2015 and has been accused of inciting violence and promoting extremism.
The arraignment of Zeenatu is seen as a move by the government to silence the IMN and its leaders, and to punish them for their perceived crimes. However, the IMN has denied any wrongdoing and has called for the release of its leaders and members who are in detention.
The case is ongoing, and it remains to be seen how it will unfold.
