Sharia Law: Policeman Arrested With Three Girls In A Hotel

A policeman with the Central Police Station, Gusau has been arrested by the Zamfara Hisba Commission with three girls at a hotel room in Gusau for committing acts contrary to Sharia Law.

This was made known by the Chairman of the commission, Dr Atiku Zawuyya while parading the suspects at the commission’s headquarters on Monday.

Zawuyya said preliminary investigation conducted by the commission showed that one of the three girls was from Kaduna state while the two others were from the same family in Zamfara.

The chairman said the commission had warned the management of the hotel several times against harbouring such people but failed to comply with the rules and regulations guiding the operation of hotel business in the state.

The manager of the hotel was also arrested by officials of the Hisba commission.

Zawuyya said the suspects would be charged to court after full investigation.
