Shi’ites storm Abuja mosque in protest over alleged death of members in police custody

The Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) also known as Shi’ites said some of its members arrested by the Nigerian Police have died in police custody.

Consequently, members of the Islamist group staged a protest in a mosque in Zone 3, Abuja, demanding for an unconditional release of their leader Sheihk Ibraheem El Zakzaky and his wife.

One of the leaders of the Movement, Abdullahi Musa, who spoke with Tribune Online, said the protest would commence immediately after Jummat prayer.
