A Kano magistrates’ court on Thursday discharged all the five suspects who allegedly killed Bridget Agbahime, a trader based in Kano.

The suspects, Dauda Ahmed, Abdulmumeen Mustafa, Zubairu Abubakar, Abdullahi Abubakar and Musa Abdullahi were slammed with a four-count charge of allegedly inciting disturbance, culpable homicide, joint act and mischief.

Agbahime, 74, an Imo indigene, was murdered in Kofar Wambai Market in Kano over alleged blasphemy.

The tragic incident occurred on June 2.
Muhammad Jibril, chief magistrate, discharged the five suspects and terminated the case in line with the directive of the attorney-general of Kano state.

Earlier, Rabiu Yusuf, principal state counsel, representing the attorney-general of Kano state, told the court that “we received the case diary from the police on June 8.”

“Having gone through the case diary, the attorney- general of Kano state evaluated the facts in accordance with sections 130 and 150 of the criminal procedure code.”

“The legal advice presented to the court, dated June 24, states that there is no case to answer as the suspects are all innocent and orders the court to discharge all the suspects.”

Abdulsalam Gambo, counsel to the suspects, commended the attorney-general for the judgement in the case.

The suspects and their families expressed gratitude to “Allah for the judgement and for their freedom”.

Does it now mean Muslim fanatics are now licensed to kill anyone that does something against their religion

I'm not saying anything until maclantunji makes his comment here.


He needs to explain this to me

The wicked can only escape man's judgment, not that of God.

Why? Did the police arrest the wrong suspects in the first place?

God purnish accursed lugard for margin me with this islamic psychos in this banana republic called zoogeria.

Imagine. This people are indirectly tell us that the fanatic and illiterates up north can kill in the name of religion and go scout free.


The earlier this sh!t of a country is divided the better for all of us.

By the way, those raghead islamist did not commit any offence. Their action was inline with the commandment of allah the arabic god R muhammed.

As an undecided voter, I must vote Trump so that Soyinka can go back to Nigeria and live with Buhari that he helped in the polls.

How can he help create chaos in Nigeria and run away to the U.S.

He must go back to Nigeria by any means possible.

eazymoh, is the above true?

“The legal advice presented to the court, dated June 24, states that there is no case to answer as the suspects are all innocent and orders the court to discharge all the suspects.”

Two things are involved here.

1. It is either the police arrested the wrong suspects which allowed the Attorney General of Kano state to withdraw charges. or

2. The Attorney General is a fanatic that saw nothing wrong with the gruesome killing of the slain victim.


God help us

I believe that in future any other religious killing in the North by north for islam will be met with requisite response from south.

ah! una expect death sentence for those 5 suspects by kano sharia court for killing an infidel e no go eva happen! to kano pipul those 5 suspects ar heros. n sombody is saying he has defeated boko there ar thousands of potential boko members on d streets in d north.
welcome to d zoo.

lovat:
Kill anyone in the name of an Arabian god and you will be free

isn't it ironic dat a state like kano regard sharia law as superior to d nigerian constitution yet d same pipul keep preaching one nijeriya why wia d suspects not tried base on d nigerian constitution after killing a non muslim citizen from anoda state ur guess is as good as mine.

What were u expecting in this Islamic Republic of Nigeria?

He is a fanatic. To an average Muslim, this is a welcome development.
You can see here on nairaland, they are all mute, they support the killing of an infidel.


The only difference between an extremist and a moderate Muslim is that the former would want to kill an infidel while the later is in support of such an act.

exactly!

dont believe any story about police arresting d wrong suspects. those pipul up dia will do anytin to frustrate d trial. sharia court will never convict a muslim for killing an infidel.
