ZAKZAKY CALLS ON JONATHAN TO RELEASE HIS MEMBERS

An Islamic group, the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, has appealed to President Goodluck Jonathan, to use his good office to release two of its members and all Nigerians that are being detained without trial.
The group, under the leadership of Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, alleged that two of its members, Haruna Abbas Ali and Ibrahim Husain, have been in detention for over a year without prosecution.
In a statement issued yesterday, the Shiite Islamic sect alleged that Abbas Ali was arrested on March 16, 2013 at the Aminu Kano International airport by security agents. According to the group, Abbas Ali’s family has been denied access to him.
“In an effort to enforce his fundamental right, a case was filed at the Federal High Court, Abuja, where he was being detained,” the statement said.
