10 Shiite Protesters Under Investigation Over Attack On Police Station In Kaduna
The police, on Thursday, began
investigating 10 members of the Sheik Ibrahim el-Zak-Zaky-led Islamic movement
for their alleged involvement in the attack on a Police Division in Kaduna
State.
The Public Relations Officer (PRO)
of the state Police Command, Zubairu Abubakar, said this in an interview with
the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Kaduna.
Abubakar said the police had
arrested the 10 suspected members of the movement when they allegedly attacked
the Tudun Wada Divisional Police Office in Kaduna on Tuesday.
He alleged that the suspects were
arrested with weapons including cutlasses, long knives and devices suspected to
be substances for making Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs).
NAN recalled that the Tudun Wada
Police Division was attacked when the policemen attempted to disperse hundreds
of members of the Islamic movement who marched around Tudun Wada and Tudun
Nupawa areas of the city.
They were protesting the reported
arrest of their leader, Sheik Ibrahim el-Zak-Zaky, in Zaria, by soldiers on
December 12.
