Islamic cleric, Sheikh Abduljabbar Kabara, has been remanded in a Kano prison for blasphemy.
The Sharia court remanded him in prison for blasphemy, incitement, and sundry offences, by the Kano state government on Friday evening.
Speaking on the case, Commissioner for Information, Mr. Muhammed Garba, noted that the Kano-based Islamic cleric was famous for controversial religious commentaries and statements, which were regarded as mortifying the companions and the Holy Prophet Muhammad.
According to him, the decision to take court action followed the receipt of the First Information Report from the police by the Office of the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice.
