JUST IN: Court adjourns El-Zakzaky’s trial to February 24

A Kaduna High Court on Thursday fixed February 24 and February 25, 2020 for the trial of leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria , Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky and his wife Zeenat.

Counsel to the defendants, Mr Femi Falana, told journalists after the adjournment that the defendants were not in court due to the poor state of health of Zeenat, the second defendant in the trial. Falana said, Justice Kurada had granted the defendants’ application to allow them access to their personal physicians to enable them appear in Court and take their plea at the next adjournment date.

Falana assured that the defendants would be in court to take their plea during the next adjournment, especially with the access given to them to their personal physicians. He said the defense counsel were not happy with the way the city of Kaduna was being locked down by security agents every time the case came up.
